Mesoporous materials xenon studies

Xenon continues to be useful to study micro- and mesoporous materials, and this is by far the largest area of application for xenon NMR studies. Variable pressure.

Chemical Shift. The relationship between pore size and chemical shifts for many controlled pore glasses has been established by the exploration of hyperpolarized xenon gas in the porous solids. A number of recent developments in Xe NMR speetroscopy and microimaging were reported with direct applications to the study of mesopore space in solids (37 references)." Experiments illustrated include the rapid eharaeterization of the void space in porous solids, including the in situ proeesses such as diffusion and dehydration, and imaging with chemical shift resolution. Chemieal shift imaging with continuously flowing hyper-polarized xenon was applied to the characterization of materials." ...
