Strong magnetism

Although continuous wave NMR is sufficient for naturally abundant nuclei with strong magnetic moments such as hydrogen, fluorine and phosphorous, the study of low abundance nuclei and/or weak magnetic moments such as carbon 13 or silicon 29 requires pulse NMR. 

Nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr) requires an atomic nuclei that can absorb a radio-frequency signal impinging it in a strong magnetic field to give a spectmm. The field strength at which the nucleus absorbs is a function of both the nucleus and its immediate electronic environment. The atoms normally used for nmr analysis are as follows (34) H, F, P, Si, and Of these, the most commonly used in polymer analyses are... 

Cementite, the term for iron carbide in steel, is the form in which carbon appears in steels. It has the formula Fe C, and thus consists of 6.67 wt % carbon and the balance iron. Cementite is very hard and britde. As the hardest constituent of plain carbon steel, it scratches glass and feldspar, but not quart2. It exhibits about two-thirds the induction of pure iron in a strong magnetic field, but has a much lower Curie temperature. 

Alternating-polarity drum separator. This device is used for the treatment of coarse material (minus 40 mm, plus 0.15 mm) containing strongly magnetic particles when a high-grade concentrate is required. The capacity of this device varies with feed-particle size, up to 100 t/(h m).

Nuclear magnetic resonance, NMR (Chapter 13 introduction) A spectroscopic technique that provides information about the carbon-hydrogen framework of a molecule. NMR works by detecting the energy absorptions accompanying the transitions between nuclear spin states that occur when a molecule is placed in a strong magnetic field and irradiated with radiofrequency waves. 

Pauli justified the identification of four quantum numbers with each electron with the following apparently clever argument. He supposed that if a strong magnetic field is applied, the electrons are decoupled and so do not interact, and can be said to be in individual stationary states. Of course, the periodic table arrangement must also apply in the absence of a magnetic field. 

NMR, nuclear magnetic resonance, is an analytical technique based on the energy differences of nuclear spin systems in a strong magnetic field. It is a powerful technique for structural elucidation of complex molecules.
