FDM ATR Dyes

Description

FDM ATR Dyes ( 170 Spectra )
This collection of dye, stain and pigment spectra was run mostly on a single bounce ZnSe ATR crystal with a small minority being run on a diamond-ZnSe crystal. The instrument was a Bruker Equinox FTIR at 2 cm-1 optical resolution with a Pike MIRacle(tm) ATR accessory.

Aside from this being authentic ATR spectra the collection is valuable because of the work that went into the naming. Each spectrum has a recognizable common name and, if available, a C. I. number, a CAS number, and, in many cases, both. Searching the web with the CI or CAS numbers is most useful for finding a wide variety of chemical information and suppliers. In terms of chemical information finding the correct synonym along with matching a CI and/or CAS number is really important as dyes have so many synonyms. Thus, with our extra effort in locating these numbers you’ll be well prepared to not only find the correct spectrum but to give it the correct name.

We should note there are related FDM databases. The FDM Comprehensive Organics has transmission FTIR spectra of many dyes. Additionally, the two FDM inorganic databases are of obvious interest. A chemical name index is available on request.
