FAQs
Q: What is a quartz IR cuvette and how does it differ from standard glass cuvettes?
A: A quartz IR cuvette is a specialized sample container made from high-purity fused silica (SiO₂) designed specifically for infrared spectroscopy. Unlike standard glass cuvettes, quartz IR cuvettes offer superior transmission in the IR spectrum (260-3500nm), higher temperature resistance (up to 1600°C), and exceptional chemical resistance to acids, bases, and solvents.
Q: Why do you need a quartz IR cuvette for infrared spectroscopy applications?
A: Quartz IR cuvettes are essential for infrared spectroscopy because they provide minimal interference with IR radiation, allowing for accurate sample analysis. Standard glass absorbs significant portions of IR radiation, which can mask important sample signals. Quartz’s exceptional transparency in the IR range, chemical resistance, and thermal stability make it the optimal material for reliable spectroscopic measurements.
Q: What wavelength range do TOQUARTZ® quartz IR cuvettes cover?
A: TOQUARTZ® quartz IR cuvettes provide excellent transmission across the 260nm-3500nm wavelength range, covering ultraviolet, visible, and infrared regions. This broad spectral range makes them versatile for various analytical applications, from UV-Vis spectroscopy to mid-IR analysis, with minimal absorption peaks throughout the range.
Q: How to use quartz IR cuvette properly to maximize measurement accuracy?
A: To maximize measurement accuracy with quartz IR cuvettes: (1) Clean thoroughly between uses with appropriate solvents and allow to dry completely; (2) Handle only by non-optical surfaces to prevent fingerprints; (3) Ensure proper orientation with the optical path perpendicular to the light beam; (4) Calibrate your instrument with the same cuvette used for samples; (5) Store in a dust-free environment to maintain optical clarity.
Q: What is the difference between quartz glass IR cuvette and fused quartz IR cuvette?
A: Though often used interchangeably, there are subtle differences: “Fused quartz” typically refers to cuvettes made from naturally occurring quartz crystals melted at high temperatures, resulting in 99.995% pure SiO₂ with minimal hydroxyl content and excellent IR transmission. “Quartz glass” sometimes refers to synthetic fused silica made from silicon compounds. TOQUARTZ® products are high-purity fused quartz with exceptional optical and thermal properties.
