    Fourier Transform Infrared microscopy combines a microscope with an infrared spectrometer to create an instrument that allows detection of individual chemical species in specific spatial regions of a sample by measuring the IR spectrum at multiple points and constructing a chemical map. Fourier Transform Infrared Attenuated Total Reflectance spectrometry provides information on the chemical bonds present on a sample surface by penetrating a short distance and correlating adsorption to chemical bond vibrations.

    1 Fourier Transform Infrared Microscopy

    Fourier Transform Infrared microscopy (FTIR) combines a


    microscope with an infrared spectrometer to create an instrument
    that allows detection of individual chemical species in specific
    spatial regions. FTIR constructs a species map for a sample by
    combining spatial specificity with information on its chemical
    constitution. This is done by measuring the IR spectrum of the
    sample at a number of different points. An entire area of the
    sample can be mapped point-by-point [124]. Internal reflection
    spectrometry, which is also called attenuated total reflectance
    infrared (ATR/IR) spectrometry, can provide valuable information
    related to the chemical structure of a sample. Mid-infrared spectra
    can be gained by pressing small pieces of the sample against an
    internal reflection element (IRE). IR radiation is then focused onto
    the end of the IRE. Light enters the IRE and reflects down the
    length of the crystal. The IR radiation then penetrates a short
    distance (~1 µm) from the surface of the IRE into the polymer
    sample [124].

    This technique provides information on the chemical bonds present


    on the surface of the sample. Adsorption of radiation correlates to
    the fundamental vibrations of chemical bonds in the mid-infrared
    spectrum. FTIR-ATR provides data on the presence or absence of
    certain functional groups and shifts in the frequency and changes
    in the intensity of absorption bands relate to changes in the
    chemical structure of the surface of the sample being studied.
    FTIR-ATR spectrometry can also be used to determine changes in
    surface chemistry after special chemical or physical treatments are
    applied [124].

    3.5.1 FTIR-ATR A Nicolet

    Nexus 470 FTIR spectrophotometer, shown in Figure 3-4, was


    used to obtain infrared spectra of the sample surfaces. The Nexus
    is equipped with an OMNIATR sampler with a germanium crystal
    and an incident angle of 45°. It provides a 10 micron viewing area.
    The spectra were taken over a range of 4000 to 700 cm-1 with a
    resolution of 2 cm-1 and 64 scans
    1.8.3 Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR)

    Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) is an analytical


    technique for identifying the functional groups of a compound.
    Functional group uniquely respond to different frequencies and
    energy levels of infrared by vibrating and stretching and their
    presence can be used to ascertain the success of grafting a
    chemical to a substrate using plasma.[109] Fourier Transform
    Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) works by subjecting a substrate to a
    beam of infrared light. The amount of light absorbed at a given
    wavelength is measured and recorded and an energy spectrum (in
    the form of absorbance or transmittance) can be generated with
    peaks or troughs corresponding to the vibrations or rotations of a
    bond. This technique requires the presence of different functional
    groups on the chemical than on the textile and the success of
    grafting can be observed by the appearance of peaks pertaining to
    the new functional group on a treated samples.

    A Nexus® 470 Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy device


    was used in conjunction with a Nicolet® Omnisampler. The FTIR
    was used to evaluate changes in the surface functionalities of the
    treated paper samples.
