Analytical Solid-State NMR Applications
Solid-state NMR analyses cover a wide range of applications that cannot be addressed by liquid-state experiments. In solid-state NMR samples are place in 7mm diameter spinning rotors and spun at high speeds (3-14 kHz) in order to allow acquisition of NMR spectra with sufficient resolution to allow chemical determinations to be made. An excellent overview of solid-state NMR is presented by Prof. Robert Schurko. In the following pages we will give several examples of applications that have been undertaken by PNA. We have a large amount of experience in the solid-state NMR area. Some of the topics below cannot be exemplified due to restrictions placed on the analyses. Where this is the case I have included a link to a document that adequately demonstrates the use of NMR in that area.
