The linear relationship between the Raman spectral intensity and the analyte amount is frequently disrupted for a variety of complex reasons, which include these variations in laser source, focusing effect, sample scattering and refracting, so that causes poor quantitative results. As a whole, these disturbing effects can be divided to be additive and multiplicative, and the multiplicative effects are generally more difficult to be eliminated. A spectrum is a series data, also can be treated as a vector.

In the spectral analysis, a large-scale application of the traditional multivariate analysis methods has been limited by both high cost and poor applicability of the calibration models. A new multivariate analysis method was proposed for multicomponent systems in the present paper. Determining MTBE content in gasoline solution by infrared spectroscopy was studied.

An analysis method for separating chromatographic overlapped peaks and purifying infrared spectra is put forward, based on the blind source separation technique and the multi-dimensional data of GC-FTIR, Using various information from hyphenated instruments, this method was used to separate completely a organic mixture, the xylene isomerism system, a problem unable to solve usually. The method can confirm the rationality of theory and algorithm and give integral explanations of the independent component analysis data. The reason for the error in quantitative analysis is discussed.
