The sample's IR spectrum shows a prominent Si–O stretch near 1015 cm⁻¹ and lower-wavenumber bands that align with the sulfate/silicate library direction. However, a strong aliphatic C–H stretch at 2930 cm⁻¹ is absent from all top-15 library candidates, which are exclusively inorganic aluminosilicates or sulfates. This conflict prevents a firm identification
Recommended next steps: Consider attenuated total reflectance (ATR) to confirm surface composition and rule out organic contamination. If organic is integral, perform additional analysis (e.g., TGA–IR, Raman) to characterize the C–H component and search against a broader organosilicon library. Explore spectral subtraction of the inorganic contribution to isolate the organic spectrum for separate library interrogation.
