“…From 9,000 to 4,000 cm −1 , there were several NIR absorption bands for the “Xinfeng” walnut, namely 8,579, 8,266, 6,900, 5,900–5,600, 5,172, and 4,900–4,600 cm −1 . The wave peak, which was located in the vicinity of 8,266 cm −1 , was related to the absorption of the second overtone of the CH stretch (Kim and Kays, ; Ren et al, ). The 5,900–5,600 cm −1 absorption bands mainly displayed two obvious wave peaks, at around 5,874 and 5,674 cm −1 , respectively.…”
