Description
These ATR/FTIR spectra are of essential oils and food oils.
These spectra are for flavour & fragrance, forensic, and cosmetic chemists and all scientists interested in the properties of these essential oils.
The food oils cover commodity oils (soy, corn, olive, canola, sunflower, etc.) and those used for flavouring (walnut, pumpkin, avocado, almond, etc.) and other uses.
The essential oils are derived from nuts, seeds, steams, buds, leaves, flowers, bark, and roots. The samples cover traditional spices and herbs (peppermint, basil, thyme, etc.) and other plants known for useful and valuable fragrances (chamomile, cypress, eucalyptus, juniper, sandalwood, etc.) to less common sources of plant oils. Botanical samples where obtained from several geographical regions for many of the materials in the database.
Samples were generated by cold pressing, expeller pressing, CO2/sCO2 extraction, solvent extraction and steam distillation.
Details associated with each spectrum include the common name, region, Latin species name and the oil extraction method.
These single bounce infrared ATR spectra were run on a ZnSe crystal on a Pike MIRacle™
