| Abstract |
|
An inexpensive demountable IR cell fitted with glass windows is proposed for studying hydrogen bonding in solutions. The IR cell consists of commercially available stainless steel liquid cell holders, rubber o-rings, 24 x 24 mm cover glass windows, and a Teflon spacer with two inlet holes. The IR cell has no problem with deterioration of the windows, because the cover glass is commercially available, inexpensive, and insoluble in water. The Teflon spacers with any desired thickness are easily made of a Teflon rod (diameter 3 cm). The low-wavenumber limit of the IR cell with glass windows is about 1600 cm-1. This cell is also useful for measurements of IR spectra of water-containing solutions.
