Actions:

#01. Baseline / Background measurement
a. Preparation of the sample holder
b. Insertion of the holder into the infrared (IR) spectroscope
c. Acquisition of the IR blank spectrum (CO₂ reading)
#02. Removal of the sample holder
#03. Placement and spreading of the liquid sample on the silver bromide cell
#04. Insertion of the sample into the spectroscope
#05. Analysis and recording of the infrared spectrum of the compound

Purpose of the Analysis
The objective is to gather information about the molecular structure of a compound later used in the formulations that form the basis of chemical products for the ceramics industry.
Goal:
To classify raw materials — understanding their structure and composition in detail — and to perform chemical inference on how each raw material behaves within a formulation.

Notes
Inference refers to the process of drawing logical conclusions from a set of observations or known facts. In other words, it’s the reasoning step that allows new knowledge to be derived from existing data or evidence.

A spectroscope is an instrument used to analyze light (or, more generally, electromagnetic radiation) emitted, absorbed, or reflected by a substance, in order to identify its chemical components or study its physical properties.
