Luer lock gas tight and tuberculin syringes are useful tools for filling demountable cells, sealed liquid cells and gas cells. The proper method for filling a sealed liquid cell requires the use of two (2) luer lock syringes.
The Infrared Cell Cleaner is an ideal method for removing samples and solvents from sealed liquid cells. This cleaner provides a convenient means for cleaning liquid cells and eliminates the cumbersome use of vacuum pumps and other extraction apparatus.

Use of paper inserts facilitates mounting small samples and pressing KBr pellets. Paper inserts are used to make KBr pellets by dropping them into the bore of a 13mm die set. The OD of the insert is slightly less than 13mm. Several hole sizes are available to enable formation of pellet from limited sample quantities. These inserts frame the pellet for ease of handling and also provide a visual reference for the proper amount of KBr powder which improves pellet quality and consistency.

Stainless steel forceps with very sharp and fine points are ideal for handling KBr pellets and picking up minute samples. They can be used with micro samples being analyzed with an FTIR microscope or a single bounce HATR micro-sampler such as the Split-Pea™.
Wire Grid Polarizers are useful for enhancing sensitivity in grazing angle measurements using specular reflectance accessories and for molecular orientation studies. Polarizers attenuate radiation from polarized lasers, polarize radiation from unpolarized lasers and can be used in pairs to both polarize and attenuate. ICL wire grid polarizers are available for wavelength ranges from 3µm to 15µm.
ICL's 25mm wire grid IR polarizers are available with 360º rotation stage holders that are mounted on 2" x 3" backplates. ...

FTIR instrumentation for FTIR Gas Analysis requires an environment free from water and CO2 to protect the optical and electronic components and to assure high signal to noise ratios. This can be achieved by operating in a nitrogen environment or with a purge gas generator.
Multipurpose stainless steel shears with large handles, 2” blade and excellent leverage. The lower blade has a serrated edge to avoid slippage. Shears cut a variety of materials including rubber and plastic tubing as well as lightweight sheet metal. Handles autoclavable to 120°C.
In addition to standard polystyrene calibration films, ICL offers several other calibration options. Superior calibrations are performed with radially symmetric films which eliminate the orientation effects of extruded films used for NIST Standard 1921 calibrations.
