I recently shared some results about measuring the kinetics of the ethyl acetate reaction. At the time, I was not entirely satisfied by the results due to the fact that I didn’t know what was the exact relation between the Read more…
Two weeks ago I presented a global methodology to quantitatively decompose the spectra of mixtures into their respective components providing that their raw spectra were known (aka measured separately). Today I’m presenting some experimental results based on this technique to Read more…
There is no doubt that Raman spectroscopy is an extremely powerful tool for the amateur to confirm the identity of a chemical compound that was synthesized. In this post I will show that our DIY Raman spectrometer is also able Read more…
