The Product Test Center (PTC) End User requires the following item, Brand Name or Equal, to the following: a self-contained instrument for measuring Ultraviolet-Visible-Near Infrared Spectroscopy (UV-VIS-NIR), a non-destructive, non-contact optical characterization technique used to measure reflectance, absorbance, and transmittance of liquids and solids using ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared light wavelengths. The instrument optic measures the intensity of various wavelengths of light absorbed/transmitted/reflected from a sample. The unit shall be a benchtop unit. It shall include control software, and computer to run the control software. The UV-VIS-NIR will be used in determining absorption, transmission, and spectral reflectance within a variety of test samples heavily based in textiles. 1, EA;
