Acquisition of a High-End UV-VIS Scanning Spectrometer System

在主要研究仪器(MRI)计划的支持下，肯纳索州立大学的化学和生物化学系将获得一台UV-Vis扫描光谱仪。研究工作将集中在以下几个方面：a)新型单分散低聚对苯乙撑S的合成和表征，作为聚对苯乙撑S的模型；以及b)水处理混凝剂中聚合铝的定量。扫描UV-Vis光谱学是现代化学实验室中的一个实验室。它对化学反应的研究至关重要，因为它能够检测紫外线或可见光吸收分子。这些研究将在多个领域产生影响，特别是环境科学和材料化学。

With support from the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program, the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Kennesaw State University will acquire a UV-VIS scanning spectrometer. Research will focus on the following studies: a) synthesis and characterization of novel monodisperse oligo(p-phenylene vinylene)s as models for poly(p-phenylene vinylene)s; and b) quantification of polymeric aluminum in water treatment coagulants. Scanning UV-VIS spectroscopy is a workhouse in a modern chemical laboratory. It is critical for the study of chemical reactions, as it enables the detection of ultraviolet or visible light-absorbing molecules. These studies will have an impact in a variety of areas, especially environmental sciences and materials chemistry.
