Estimation of Gypsum Calcite Percentages Using a Fourier ...
the first time by using IR for analytical grades of gypsum (CaSO 2 O) and calcite (CaCO 3) pure crystals. The spectral results were used to create a calibration curve relates the two minerals concentrations to the intensity (peaks) of FTIR absorbance and applies this calibration to specify gypsum and calcite concentrations in Iraqi
