Chemir was founded on expertise in Infrared Spectroscopy. Our company’s original name, Chemir Polytech Laboratories, was derived from “Chem-IR” for Infrared Spectroscopy.

The instrumentation in the Molecular Spectroscopy Lab is focused on the identification of materials. Infrared spectra can be collected in transmission mode or using Horizontal Attenuated Total Reflectance (HATR) for surface analysis. A spectrum can be collected on liquids, solids, and particulate specimens.
In addition to infrared spectroscopy, the lab includes a 400 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometer that has the ability to collect proton, carbon, phosphorous, and fluorine spectra. The NMR spectrometer is a powerful instrument for the identification of unknowns and for obtaining quantitative information. A Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometer is available for collecting UV-Vis spectra and for quantitative assays.
