Pulse Fourier Transform PFT NMR Spectroscopy

The introduction of additional techniques such as Pulsed Fourier Transform NMR spectroscopy (PFT-NMR) has considerably increased the sensitivity of the method, allowing many magnetic nuclei which may be in low abundance, including 13C, to be studied. The additional data available from these methods allow information on polymer structure, conformation and relaxation behaviour to be obtained (1.18.20). 

The Reader It is assumed that the reader understands the fundamental principles of pulse Fourier transform spectroscopy (PFT) and is proficient in using the MS-Windows operating system and Windows based programs. The references at the end of section 1.4 list both introductory and comprehensive texts on the main principles of NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore the reader should be familiar with computer environments, as working on a spectrometer inevitable requires computer management skills.
