Abstract
A linear pixel-array detector was employed to create spatially resolved multi-layered IR-images of a large collection of polymer beads supporting carbonyl and nitrile monomers. The feasibility of creating multi-layered IR-images with nitrile IR-band separation of 4 cm(-1) was demonstrated, an important issue when considering that many monomers used to develop combinatorial libraries are structurally analogous and therefore occupy very similar positions in the IR-spectrum. Strategies for obtaining high quality spectral data from both imaging and mapping IR-microscopes without compromising on sample area, analysis time, or spatial resolution are also described.
