Low Temperature Infrared Cell And Its Application In Isoprene And Nitrogen Dioxide Reaction Studies, Gunars Vilcins

Master's Theses

The purpose of this research was to explore the application of low temperature infrared spectroscopy to the study of several chemical problems. In particular the following items were investigated:

1. The design, manufacture, and operation of a low temperature optical cell suitable for infrared spectroscopic studies or gas-solid samples at liquid nitrogen temperature (-196°c) and above.

2. The recording and study of the infrared spectra or nitrogen dioxide and isoprene at 25°c and at lower temperatures.

3. A preliminary study of the reaction between nitrogen dioxide and isoprene at various temperatures using infrared techniques.

In recent years infrared studies have …
