Abstract
Raman spectroscopy has developed significantly over the last twenty-five years, and its applications in the polymer field are growing on a daily basis, due to the considerable advances in Raman instrumentation, like for example the FT-Raman technique. This article is intended to provide a perspective on the use of conventional Raman spectroscopy, and present some of the more important developments.
