•Potential to perform quantitative FTIR is reviewed.•Challenges and difficulties assessed.•Applications for solid acids, supported metals and during reaction included.•Perspectives for future applications assessed.
An overview of the application of FTIR to the quantification of adsorption sites on solid acids, metal particles and to hydrocarbon chains formed during Fischer Tropsch synthesis is reported. The procedures employed in obtaining molar absorption coefficients for transmittance FTIR are described along with a review of pertinent data reported for the three topic areas covered. The limitations and challenges in each case are outlined.
