Abstract

Novel measurement method has been performed for the noninvasive study of the swelling effect detected in hydrophilic polymers using Magnetic Resonance Microscopy. iN NMR images were acquired to measure geometric changes due to the swelling effect occurred in the polymer specimens. In addition to the geometric changes, the water ingress process was visualized noninvgsively. The measurement method performed .in the present study utilized some of NMR's valuable properties, both noninvasiveness and parameter selectivity. It is believed that the method used in the present study may be applicable to the study of biopolymers in which noninvasiveness is particularly important.
