![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Effect of concentration, particle size and the presence of protective coatings in DRIFT spectra of building materials Effect of concentration, particle size and the presence of protective coatings in DRIFT spectra of building materials](/preview/png/1252124.png)
This paper discusses the effect of particle size (from under 45 to 425 μm), sample concentration (5 and 50% dilution in KBr) and the presence/absence of anti-graffiti coatings on the quality of diffuse reflectance spectra, specifically the spectra for limestone, granite and brick. In limestone, sample dilution was found to affect spectral resolution significantly, whereas the increase in particle size leads to a slight decrease in signal intensity. The presence of anti-graffiti protection was the factor that disturbed spectral quality most visibly, except in very dilute (5%) samples with a very fine particle size (under 45 μm). In more heterogeneous materials such as brick and granite, particle size proved to have a greater impact than dilution, while the presence of protective treatment was again the parameter with the greatest effect on quality and consequently signal reproducibility. This effect was slighter in very dilute samples with a small particle size.
