Multiple perturbation two-dimensional correlation analysis of cellulose by attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy.
An extension of the two-dimensional (2D) correlation analysis scheme for multi-dimensional perturbation is described. A simple computational form is provided to construct synchronous correlation and disrelation maps for the analysis of microscopic imaging data based on two independent perturbation variables. Sets of time-dependent attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectra of water and cellulose mixtures were collected during the evaporation of water from finely ground cellulose. The system exhibits complex behaviors in response to two independent perturbations, i.e., evaporation time and grinding time. Multiple perturbation 2D analysis reveals a specific difference in the rate of evaporation of water molecules when accompanied by crystallinity changes of cellulose. It identifies subtle differences in the volatility of water, which is related to the crystalline structure of cellulose.
