Detecting Silicone Oil on Surfaces Using QCL Hyperspectral Imaging

April 7, 2026

QCL hyperspectral imaging identifies silicone oil on surfaces, combining infrared spectroscopy with spatial mapping to support contamination detection and process control.

ON DEMAND: EPA published a regulation proposal around N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) in June 2024 to ban or limit NMP in many applications, such as paints and coatings and their removers. N-butylpyrrolidone (NBP) is a powerful and versatile solvent for a variety of industries looking for alternatives to substance of very high concern (SVHC)-listed solvents.
