Product Description
When it comes to infrared spectroscopy, the quality of your potassium bromide (KBr) powder can make or break your results. This high-purity potassium bromide for FTIR is specifically designed to meet the stringent requirements of infrared analysis, ensuring minimal interference and maximum clarity in your spectral data.
Whether you’re a student preparing samples for a lab experiment or a researcher working on advanced material characterization, this IR-grade potassium bromide delivers consistent performance. Its fine powder form makes it easy to mix with samples, creating homogeneous pellets that transmit infrared light effectively.
One of the key advantages of using this potassium bromide for IR spectroscopy is its low moisture content. Excess moisture can absorb infrared radiation, leading to noisy spectra and inaccurate readings. This product is processed to minimize hydration, giving you cleaner baseline readings and sharper peaks in your FTIR spectra.
For those working in academic laboratories or research facilities, having a reliable supply of high-quality KBr powder is essential. eqipped ensures you get authentic Avantor products with proper documentation, so you can trust the purity and performance of every batch.
Need potassium bromide pellets for IR analysis? This powder is perfect for pressing into transparent discs for FTIR measurements.
The applications of this potassium bromide IR grade extend beyond basic spectroscopy. It’s commonly used in:
- Qualitative and quantitative analysis of organic compounds
- Functional group identification in unknown samples
- Quality control in pharmaceutical and chemical industries
- Educational demonstrations of infrared spectroscopy principles
When preparing your samples, remember that proper technique is just as important as using high-quality materials. Always grind your sample thoroughly with the KBr powder and apply even pressure when forming pellets. This ensures optimal transparency and accurate spectral results.
For laboratories that perform frequent IR spectroscopy, maintaining a stock of this potassium bromide powder is a smart investment. Its long shelf life and stable properties mean you can rely on it for consistent results over time.

FAQs
What makes this potassium bromide suitable for IR spectroscopy?
This product is specifically processed to meet IR spectroscopy requirements, with controlled particle size and minimal water content that would otherwise interfere with infrared measurements.
How should I store potassium bromide for FTIR use?
Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place. Exposure to humidity can affect its performance in infrared applications.
Can I use this potassium bromide for other applications besides FTIR?
While optimized for IR spectroscopy, it can be used in other applications requiring high-purity KBr, though we recommend checking specific grade requirements for alternative uses.
What’s the typical sample-to-KBr ratio for pellet preparation?
A common ratio is 1-2% sample to 98-99% KBr by weight, though this may vary depending on your specific sample and analysis requirements.
How quickly can I receive my order of potassium bromide IR grade?
eqipped offers fast delivery across India. Most orders are processed within 1-2 business days, with delivery times varying by location.
