Carbon black is a form of amorphous carbon. It is mainly used as reinforcement filler in automobile tires and other rubber products, but it's also used in pigments, paint, and carbon paper. Raman spectroscopy is a very effective analytical technology for characterizing carbon materials. The Raman bands associated with different carbon bonds reveal details of the structure on the molecular level. Most of the research using Raman technology has been applied to carbon nanotubes and graphene. The fast characterization of carbon black material using Raman spectroscopy is discussed here to demonstrate that Raman technology is well suited for carbon black material characterization.
