Different methods of investigation of the spin-echo attenuation, in the NMR pulsed field gradient experiments, were analyzed in order to optimize the measurements of the self-diffusion coefficient of the small molecules of simplest liquids. A particular algorithm of representation of the experimental data is proposed in order to eliminate the effect of the residual gradient. This algorithm, tested for pure water, give results in accord with the literature.

The self-diffusion coefficient of the cyclohexane in some polybutadiene solutions was measured by NMR pulse magnetic field gradient method. The experimental data were analyzed on the basis of the free volume theory. A specific algorithm for analyze was proposed. Preliminary investigation indicates a deviation from the WLF theory for these solutions.

AbstractSelf-diffusion coefficients of 7Li+ ions have been measured in molten LiNO3 with several compositions of 6Li+ and 7Li+ over a temperature range from 537 to 615 K. The NMR spin-echo method with pulsed field gradients was applied. It was found that the self-diffusion coefficient depends on the isotopic composition and shows a maximum at equimolar ratio. At temperatures above 600 K this behaviour disappears.

To enhance the electrical conductivity of the electrolyte for a newly developed dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC), metallic copper (Cu) encapsulated within the carbon shell (Cu@C) nanoparticles dispersed in a room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) (e.g., [bmim+][PF6−]) has been studied in the present work. By the pulsed-field gradient spin-echo NMR method, the self-diffusion coefficients of cations and anions of the RTIL have been determined. The self-diffusion coefficient of the [bmim+] cations in the RTIL dispersed with 0.08% of Cu@C nanoparticles is increased by 35%. The electrical conductivity of the Cu@C dispersed RTIL is also increased by 65% (1.0→2.3 ms/cm). It is very clear the nanosize Cu@C dispersed RTIL with a relatively greater diffusion coefficient and electrical conductivity can be a very effective electrolyte especially utilized in DSSCs.

AbstractThe pressure dependence of the self diffusion coefficient D for octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and hexamethylcyclotrisilazane has been determined by the NMR spin echo technique with pulsed magnetic field gradients at pressures up to 200 MPa and at temperatures between 490 K and 290 K. The data extend partially into the deeply supercooled range. The isobaric temperature dependence of these data is quantitatively described by the empirical Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann equation. For both substances the melting pressure curves were determined in addition.
