THE OUTCOME

The student will be able to:

• Understand the importance and significance of proper method selection for analysis, as well as the interpretation of obtained results.

• Validate methods of instrumental analysis of textile materials, wastewater from the textile industry, and textile auxiliary agents.

• Apply instrumental methods of analysis of textile materials, wastewater from the textile industry, and textile auxiliary agents in various quality control, testing, and development laboratories within the industry and economy.
 

TOPICS OF THE COURSE

Sample preparation. Analytical methods in analysis of historical and modern textiles. Parameters of instrumental analysis. Calibration. Spectroscopic methods. Molecular absorption spectroscopy. Molecular fluorescence spectroscopy. Atomic spectroscopy based on UV/VIS radiation (absorption, emission). Electrochemical methods. Potentiometry. Voltammetry. Conductometry. Electrogravimetry. Comparison with other analytical methods. Separation methods. Chromatography. Selection of chromatographic methods according to the type of substances in the mixture. Application of instrumental analytical methods in the characterization of textile materials, textile auxiliary agents, and wastewater of textile industry.

THE AIM

After passing the exam in the course Instrumental Analytical Methods, the student has mastered the theoretical principles and gained practical experience in using the most significant physicochemical methods of analysis in characterizing textile materials, textile auxiliary agents, and wastewater, as well as in scientific research. Additionally, they have learned the basic techniques used in environmental chemical analysis
