Diffuse Reflexion Infrarot-spektroskopische Identifizierung von Dispergiermittel / Particle Bindungsmechanismen in Functional Inks

Formulation of stable, functional inks is critical to expanding the applications of additive manufacturing. In turn, knowledge of the mechanisms of dispersant/particle bonding is required for effective ink formulation. Diffuse Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (DRIFTS) is presented as a simple, inexpensive way to gain insight into these mechanisms.
