Applications of Micro-Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) in the Geological Sciences—A Review

Abstract: Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) can provide crucial information on the molecular structure of organic and inorganic components and has been used extensively for chemical characterization of geological samples in the past few decades. In this paper, recent applications of FTIR in the geological sciences are reviewed. Particularly, its use in the characterization of geochemistry and thermal maturation of organic matter in coal and shale is addressed. These investigations demonstrate that the emplo… Show more

“…Vibrational spectroscopy has been evaluated as a potential technique for predicting the thermal maturity of carbonaceous samples (Spotl et al, 1998;Ferrari and Robertson, 2000;Beyssac et al, 2002;Quirico et al, 2005;Rahl et al, 2005;Guedes et al, 2010Guedes et al, , 2012Hinrichs et al, 2014;Wilkins et al, 2014;Zhou et al, 2014;Chen et al, 2015;Bonoldi et al, 2016;Lünsdorf, 2016;Lünsdorf and Lünsdorf, 2016;Sauerer et al, 2017;Schito et al, 2017;Schmidt et al, 2017). Most of this research has focused on Raman spectroscopy, an analytical tool that provides fast, non-destructive analyses, requires little-to-no sample preparation, and can grant both qualitative and quantitative information about the analyte.…”

“…For example, FTIR (Chen et al 2015) and VIS-NIR (Horta et al 2015) have application as in situ methods that can be used for quantitative measurements in the field. It can reasonably be assumed that other analytical methods that depend on macro-beam methodologies will be similarly affected by analyte heterogeneity.…”

For example, FTIR (Chen et al 2015) and VIS-NIR (Horta et al 2015) have application as in situ methods that can be used for quantitative measurements in the field. At the microscale, LA-ICP-MS (Limbeck et al 2015) can be considered as a laboratory-based method that uses beam technology and where measurements may also be affected by heterogeneity of analytes.…”
