What type of sample preparation is often required for solid samples in IR spectroscopy?

Step 1: Take a small amount of the solid sample you want to analyze.
Step 2: Mix the solid sample with potassium bromide (KBr) powder in a small container.
Step 3: Use a mortar and pestle to grind the mixture into a fine powder. This helps to ensure even distribution.
Step 4: Take a small amount of the ground mixture and place it in a pellet press.
Step 5: Apply pressure to the pellet press to form a solid pellet from the mixture.
Step 6: Carefully remove the pellet from the press. It should be clear and thin enough to allow IR light to pass through.
