Instrumental resolution has a significant effect on the performance of Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometers used for gasphase analysis. Low-resolution FT-IR spectroscopy offers some valuable advantages compared with the traditional high-resolution FT-IR gas-phase spectroscopy, especially in nonlaboratory environments. First, high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) spectra can be acquired in field conditions without the use of traditional liquid nitrogen-cooled detectors. Second, the dynamic range for quantitative analysis is larger for low-resolution spectroscopy than for high-resolution due to the lower absorbance values and lower noise levels. Third, spectral analysis speed is increased and data storage requirements are substantially reduced. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of instrumental resolution on FT-IR gas-phase analysis. The effects of spectral resolution on sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy, precision, spectral overlap, dynamic range, and nonlinearity are separately discussed.

This is the second paper belonging to a study concerning the authentication of ancient easel-paintings, on canvas and wood support, from private and public collections, by using the FT-IR spectrophotometry technique for the analysis of the painting materials. Different pigments, egg binders, caseins and animal glue, often found in ancient easel-paintings on wood or canvas, have been used as standards for establishing the ageing rate of the paintings by correlation with the dates presented in the first note. The determination of the degradation rate of the painting materials is an important archaeometric characteristic used in authentication.

In the field of polymer technology, a variety of mainly synthetic additives are used to stabilize the materials during processing. However, natural compounds of plant origin can be a green alternative to chemicals such as synthetic polyphenols. An analysis of the effect of hesperidin on the aging behavior of ethylene-norbornene copolymer was performed. The evaluation of changes in the tested samples was possible by applying the following tests: determination of the surface energy and OIT values, mechanical properties analysis, colour change measurements, FT-IR and TGA analyses. The obtained results proved that hesperidin can be effectively used as natural stabilizer for polymers. Furthermore, as a result of this compound addition to Topas-silica composites, their surface and physico-mechanical properties have been improved and the resistance to aging significantly increased. Additionally, hesperidin can act as a dye or colour indicator and only few scientific reports describe a possibility of using flavonoids to detect changes in products during their service life, e.g., in food packaging. In the available literature, there is no information about the potential use of hesperidin as a stabilizer for cycloolefin copolymers. Therefore, this approach may contribute not only to the current state of knowledge, but also presents an eco-friendly solution that can be a good alternative to synthetic stabilizers.

Solutions consisting of HF - NOHSO4 - H2SO4 exhibit a strong reactivity towards crystalline silicon which is controlled by the concentrations of the reactive species HF and NO+. Selective isotropic and anisotropic wet chemical etching with these solutions allows to generate a wide range of silicon surface morphology patterns. Traces of Ag+ ions stimulate the reactivity and lead to the formation of planarized (polished) silicon surfaces. Analyses of the silicon surface, the etching solution and the gas phase were performed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), DR/FT-IR (diffusive reflection Fourier transform infra-red), FT-IR, Raman and NMR spectroscopy, respectively. It was found that the resulting silicon surface is hydrogen-terminated. The gas phase contains predominantly SiF4, NO and N2O. Furthermore, NH4+ is produced in solution. The study has confirmed the crucial role of nitrosyl ions for isotropic wet chemical etching processes. The novel etching system is proposed as an effective new way for selective surface texturing of multi- and monocrystalline silicon. A high etching bath service lifetime, besides a low contamination of the etching solution with reaction products, provides ecological and economical advantages for the semiconductor and solar industry.
