Infrared and Raman spectroscopy are two complementary techniques for the analysis of corrosion products, stains, and similar mineral or organic substances. The term vibrational spectroscopy is frequently used to descibe these complementary techniques. This paper discusses the instrumentation used for these techniques, their appliction to a selected variety of corrosion problems, and compares vibrational spectroscopy to other techniques available for analysis of similar materials.
