Accelerate your polymer analysis
Over 75 years of PerkinElmer’s expertise in spectroscopy has been distilled into Polymer ID analyzer – a Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer designed to provide operational simplicity, superb performance, and low maintenance. Simple installation and fast warm-up ensure quick set-up while a wide range of “plug-and-play” sampling accessories in a compact, portable instrument help move your analyses out of the laboratory.
PerkinElmer’s patented technology ensures superior spectra regardless of the polymer sample being analyzed. An exceptional signal-to-noise ratio, advanced electronics and optimized sensitivity guarantee consistent instrument performance. Analyze a wide range of polymers and complex blends with a dedicated spectral library and built-in functions.
Polymer ID Analyzer helps you:
Results at the touch of a screen
The Spectrum 10™ software allows you to focus on what matters most – results. Dedicated to rapid analysis of a wide range of polymers, the comprehensive FT-IR software facilitates effortless data collection, processing, and generation of results. Users without scientific training can easily generate infrared spectra from a sample and validate them against reference spectra in minutes, or even seconds.

Synthetic polymers are widely used today, with diverse applications in various industries such as food, automotive, and packaging. The quality of plastic products depends on the quality of the polymers or polymer blends used during manufacturing. Identity verification and quality testing of those materials during every stage of manufacturing is necessary to ensure that only high-quality material is used.
Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is ideally suited to qualitative analysis of polymer starting materials and finished products, quantification of components in complex polymer mixtures, and analysis of in-process samples. IR spectroscopy is reliable, fast and cost-effective. Furthermore, in conjunction with the data analysis packages included in the polymer analysis bundle, this analysis bundle gives the user the ability to gain valuable insights into a particular material.
Innovation is the lifeblood of industrial polymer development – the push to improve materials or develop new ones infuses new life into the industry from R&D through to QA/QC. Manufacturers are continually challenged to ensure effective quality control and streamline processes while meeting stringent standards. Increasingly they must design for recycling and/or reuse in an ever more waste-adverse economy, keep a watchful eye on costs and stay ahead of the competition.
In response, we've gained years of experience developing a range of analytical capabilities to address a wide range of polymer analysis needs.
