Long Optical Path Measurement
Square Long-Path Absorption Cell Holder

Spectrum of Potassium Permanganate
When the concentration of the sample is too low to be measured using a standard cell with an optical path length of 10 mm, a cell with a longer optical path length is used to enable measurement at the optimum absorption sensitivity. As shown in the figure, the absorption spectrum of potassium permanganate becomes clearer when a 100 mm cell is used instead of a 10 mm cell.

Biodegradable Plastics
In order to reduce plastic waste, the development of eco-friendly alternative materials is being promoted. As an alternative, biomass plastics and biodegradable plastics are becoming more widely available. Biodegradable Plastics are plastics that are decomposed into low-molecular compounds by microorganisms in the environment. So they break down easily in nature, which is an opposite characteristic of petroleum-based plastics.
