Changes observed at FTIR frequencies observed with free hydrogels and ash composites.
| Type of frequency | Free hydrogels (cm−1) | Black ash composite hydrogels (cm−1) | White ash composite hydrogels (cm−1) |
| N–H, O–H bonds [15–17] | 3431 | 3424 (intensity increases) | 3429 | C=O stretching vibration in amide groups (amide-I) [15–18] | 1638 | 1651 | 1643 | Bending of N–H bond (amide-II) | 1558 | 1555 | 1556 | C–N bond (amide-III) | 1448 | 1452 | 1454 | Symmetric and asymmetric stretching of –SO2 | 1220 and 1038 | 1222 and 1039 | 1223 and 1037 | C=O bond of Carboxyl group [19–23] | 1723 | 1728 | Do not appear | C–O–Si stretching | Do not appear | Do not appear | 1109 |
