Abstract Molecular motions in sulfur-vulcanized NR are investigated by solid state 13C NMR relaxation techniques. Since the high-resolution spectra of crosslinked samples exhibit overlapping in the aliphatic region, a combined application of variable temperature spin-lattice relaxation measurements and the computer simulation of the overlapped spectral region is used in order to detect resonance signals. Motional restrictions introduced by crosslinks are investigated from the temperature dependence of nT1 relaxation times for individual carbons. The V-curves for all polyisoprene signals and for the detectable signals arising from the network units exhibit a similar general trend with increased curing time: curve broadening, shift of the minima to higher temperatures, and increase of the T1 min values. All the backbone carbons show quantitatively similar effects of vulcanization on the spin-lattice relaxation. At shorter curing times, motional restrictions for the methyl side group are more pronounced compared to the main-chain carbons. The experimental data suggest that the isotropic motion is strongly affected by the crosslinking. Librational motion is less affected, while the change in rotational motion has no significant influence on the relaxation curve. Although experimental data cover a relatively narrow temperature range, not sufficiently wide for a more accurate quantitative analysis, the results indicate that concepts of plural correlation times and a distribution of correlation times are applicable.

Deuterium nmr spin–lattice relaxation times have been measured for dilute solutions of adamantane-d16 in CH2I2, CHBr3, CCl4, CHCl3, and CH2Cl2. The reorientation correlation times, τ2, calculated from the experimental data are used to calculate τJ, the angular momentum correlation times, assuming both the J-diffusion and Hubbard relations. The derived τJ values suggest that adamantane executes small step diffusion in CH2I2 and CHBr3, and large step diffusion in CCl4, CHCl3, and CH2Cl2. The calculated τJ values do not appear to be related to the mean times between collisions calculated using a hard sphere model. Both variable solvent and variable temperature experiments indicate 1 ps/cP for the viscosity dependence of the adamantane reorientation time, about 1/36th the value predicted using the familiar Stokes–Einstein equation.Carbon-13 and 1H nmr T1 data indicate that reorientation of hexamethylenetetramine in H2O (28 ps/cP), CHCl3 (27 ps/cP), and CHBr3 (18 ps/cP) is severely hindered because of inter-molecular hydrogen bonding.

The order–disorder behaviour of 1-chloroadamantane (1-C10H15Cl) has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, and variable-temperature vibrational and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The factor group splittings in the vibrational spectra are in accord with the known crystal structures of the two phases. The 13C spin-lattice relaxation times and dipolar dephasing measurements have been analysed to give the barriers to rotation in both phases and to determine the nature of the rotations in each phase. In the ordered phase, the motion is limited to rotation about the molecular axis. In the disordered phase, additional motions occur about axes through the tertiary carbon atoms.

The cross-polarized static and high-resolution magic angle spinning 119Sn NMR spectra of a number of 2,2-dialkyl-1,3,2-dioxastannolanes and one 1,3,2-dioxastannane have been measured in the solid state. For the four compounds on which X-ray studies had been performed, the numbers and positions of the isotropic peaks in the high-resolution spectra were related to the number of tin sites present and the state of oligomerization of the compounds. The chemical shifts of hexacoordinate Sn nuclei are 35–80 ppm larger in polymeric solids than for the same compounds in solution where the compounds exist as trimers and tetramers. States of oligomerization for solids that had not been previously studied by X-ray crystallography were determined using CP/MAS 119Sn NMR spectroscopy. The principal components of the 119Sn chemical shift tensors were obtained from the static spectra and used to calculate chemical shift anisotropies and asymmetry parameters. The values of the chemical shift anisotropies ranged from 600 to 800 ppm for 1,3,2-dioxastannolanes but the value for a 1,3,2-dioxastannane was larger, 919 ppm. The chemical shift anisotropies measured directly from the solid-state powder patterns are in excellent agreement with the values derived from previous variable temperature spin-lattice relaxation measurements in solution when the same oligomer was present in both states. Our results support our previous conclusion that the antisymmetric terms of the chemical shift tensor make a small or negligible contribution to the rate of 119Sn spin-lattice relaxation in these compounds.

AbstractLithium intercalted carbon nanotubes have attracted considerable interest as perspective components for energy storage devices. We performed 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spin lattice relaxation measurements in a temperature range from 4 K up to 300 on alkali intercalated Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes in order to investigate the modifications of the electronic properties. The density of states at the Fermi level were determined for pristine, lithium and cesium intercalated carbon nanotubes and are discussed in terms of intercalation and charge transfer effects.

Abstract Polyhydroborate-based salts of lithium and sodium have attracted much recent interest as promising solid-state electrolytes for energy-related applications. A member of this family, sodium dicarba-nido-undecahydroborate Na-7,9-C2B9H12 exhibits superionic conductivity above its order-disorder phase transition temperature, ∼360 K. To investigate the dynamics of the anions and cations in this compound at the microscopic level, we have measured the 1H and 23Na nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra and spin-lattice relaxation rates over the temperature range of 148–384 K. It has been found that the transition from the low-T ordered to the high-T disordered phase is accompanied by an abrupt, several-orders-of-magnitude acceleration of both the reorientational jump rate of the complex anions and the diffusive jump rate of Na+ cations. These results support the idea that reorientations of large [C2B9H12]− anions can facilitate cation diffusion and, thus, the ionic conductivity. The apparent activation energies for anion reorientations obtained from the 1H spin-lattice relaxation data are 314 meV for the ordered phase and 272 meV for the disordered phase. The activation energies for Na+ diffusive jumps derived from the 23Na spin-lattice relaxation data are 350 and 268 meV for the ordered and disordered phases, respectively.

Abstract A model for the spin lattice relaxation time of the protons of dimethylammonium in the Redfield limit and common spin temperature approximation is developed. The three fold reorientations of the methyl groups, the rotation of the whole molecular group around its two fold symmetric axis and possible correlations among these motions are considered. The effect of these processes on the dipolar interactions among the protons within the same molecular group is taken into account. The resulting relaxation rate is powder averaged and used to explain the experimental data in literature on [NH2(CH3)2]3Sb2Br9 . The analysis shows that dynamically inequivalent groups exist in this compound and that the effect of proposed correlation among the different motions on the final results is negligible.
