Taylor & Francis Ltd (Sales) Infrared Spectral Interpretation A Systematic Approach
Book SynopsisThis author's second volume introduces basic principles of interpreting infrared spectral data, teaching its readers to make sense of the data coming from an infrared spectrometer. Contents include spectra and diagnostic bands for the more common functional groups as well as chapters on polyester spectra and interpretation aids.Discussions include: Science of infrared interpretation Light and molecular vibrations How and why molecules absorb infrared radiation Peak heights, intensities, and widths Hydrocarbons, carbonyl groups, and molecules with C-N bonds Polymers and inorganic molecules The use of atlases, library searching, spectral subtraction, and the Internet in augmenting interpretation Each chapter presents an introduction to the nomenclature and structure of a specific functional group and proceeds with the important diagnostic bands for each group. Infrared Spectral Interpretation serves both novices and experienced practitioners in this field.The author maintains a website and blog with supplemental material. His training course schedule is also available online.Trade Review"This clearly written book…is a useful addition…Smith's approach is practical; a short theoretical introduction is followed by chapters on compounds…plus a good index and glossary.

Cambridge University Press Vibrational Spectroscopy of Solids Cambridge Monographs in Physical Chemistry
Book SynopsisThis 1972 monograph is devoted to the analysis and interpretation of the infrared and Raman spectra of solid compounds, frequently used for their identification and characterization. It was thought unsatisfactory to analyse such spectra by the theory applicable to gas-phase samples, though this was frequently done. Furthermore, the results obtained by far infrared and laser Raman spectrometers, which detect the movement of atoms and/or molecules as a whole, had no gas-phase analogy. A separate approach to solid state vibrational spectra was therefore proposed within this volume. Dr Sherwood describes the solid state physics of vibrational spectroscopy and extends it to the more complex structures of low symmetry. He assumes an understanding of the infrared and Raman spectra of gases.Table of ContentsPreface; 1. Introduction; 2. Phonons and lattice vibrations; 3. The application of group theory to a crystal lattice; 4. The interaction of radiation with a crystal; 5. Second order vibrational spectroscopic features; Appendix: character tables; References; Glossary of terms; Index.

John Wiley & Sons Inc MALDI Mass Spectrometry for Synthetic Polymer
Book SynopsisPrinciples and Practices of Polymer Mass Spectrometry helps readers acquire the skills necessary for selecting the optimal methods, handling samples, analyzing the data, and interpreting the results of the mass spectrometry of polymers. This guide describes the principles of polymer MS and best practices in polymer characterization.Trade Review"The primary audience will be beginning graduate students (or advanced undergraduates) who are starting research on MALDI of polymers. It will also be of great value for industrial chemists who work in polymer MALDI. I would also recommend it to polymer chemists who want to understand how MALDI can help them in their work." (Anal Bioanal Chem, 2010) "Overall, I highly recommend this book for any polymer scientist with access to MALDI-MS as it will aid in the better planning of experiments and interpretation of the results. This is definitely a book for beginning graduate students in the field and for MS facility managers who are constantly exposed to a wide variety of samples, with synthetic polymers being among them." (JACS, 2010)Table of ContentsPreface. Contributors. 1. Overview of MS and MALDI MS for polymer analysis. 2. Ionization Processes and Detection in MALDI-MS of Polymers. 3. Time-of-flight MS for polymer characterization. 4. Polymer analysis with Fourier Transform mass spectrometry. 5. Tandem MS and polymer ion dissociation. 6. Conventional MALDI sample preparation. 7.
