Raman spectroscopy is increasingly used for polymer and plastic analysis due to its non-destructive, fast, and environmentally friendly nature. It can identify and characterise polymers, even in colored or complex forms, without sample preparation. Handheld devices allow for in-situ testing, improving safety and efficiency. Raman spectroscopy is crucial for quality control, environmental monitoring (e.g., microplastics), and polymer recycling, helping manufacturers optimise processes and ensure material integrity. Its simplicity and accuracy make it valuable across industries.
