Proton magic angle spinning spectra and thermogravimetric analysis data of poly(vinyl butylal) with water in it indicate water contents in the poly(vinyl butylal) samples were reduced during magic angle spinning. Our observation implies that the centrifugal force on the samples due to magic angle spinning cannot be neglected, especially on inhomogeneous and soft samples like poly(vinyl butylal) we tested in this work.

Drawn polyethylene was studied by 13C cross polarization magic angle spinning techniques. Solid-solid phase transition from orthorhombic to monoclinic crystalline phase by drawing was observed. In addition, using a synchronized magic angle spinning 2 dimension technique, we confirmed that macroscopic ordering of the polyethylene was produced by drawing.

General expressions for solid state NMR lines are described for transitions under static, magic angle spinning, and variable angle spinning conditions in the case where the principal axis system for the anisotropic chemical shift tensor is noncoincident with that of the quadrupole coupling tensor. It is demonstrated that solid state NMR powder pattern simulation program VMAS based on the conventional grid point method of integrating over the Euler angle space is fast enough in comparison with the POWDER simulation package and Gauss-point method.

Poly(vinyl butyral) (PVB) with different wt% water was studied gravimetrically as well as with 1H magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The composition of PVB samples changes during MAS NMR because of the centrifugal force. As MAS time progresses, initially free water was removed fast but bound water also was gradually depleted. More water was diminished at faster spinning speeds, longer spinning time, higher temperatures, and higher initial water contents. As water in PVB was reduced, the chemical shifts and line widths of different types of water and also those of PVB changed. Our results demonstrate that 1H MAS NMR carried out at 10 kHz in less than about 5 minutes is a convenient and sensitive technique to measure: (a) the content variations of different types of water in polymers, (b) the degree of the interaction of water and polymer, and (c) the molecular dynamics of the polymer. Our study can be extended to different soft polymers with other small molecules than water in them.

Ginseng is used as a medicinal ingredient. The quality control of species, age, origin and manufacturing process is important. The metabolome of ginseng about quality was studied in many reports. Almost studies carried out the extract of ginseng, however, the reproducibility cannot be obtained using extracted sample. In this study, powdery ginseng samples were analyzed using high resolution-magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (HR-MAS NMR)-based metabolomics except extraction step. Sample was measured three times using 600 MHz NMR spectrometer equipped with nano probe. Reproducibility can be enhanced using this method and the metabolic profiles of ginseng were identified and quantified.

Membrane proteins play a essential role in the biological systems and it is not easy to handle a membrane protein for its structural study. Solid-state NMR (ssNMR) can be a good tool to investigate the structures and dynamics of membrane proteins. In ssNMR, Magic Angle Spinning (MAS) and Cross Polarization (CP) can be utilized to reduce the line-broadening, leading to high resolution and sensitivity in the spectrum. ssNMR, if combined with other spectroscopic methods, can provide us a enough knowledge on structures and dynamics of membrane proteins in biological condition.

Hydrotalcites are anionic clays that are quite prevalent in nature and their importance is growing more and more because of their very wide range of potential applications and uses. Understanding the structural and compositional changes that occur on the molecular scale during the thermal decomposition of hydrotalcite compounds is essential for the basic prediction and comprehensive understanding of the behavior and technical application of these materials. In this study, several hydrotalcite compounds calcined at different temperatures for applications in a chlorine resistant textile were prepared and 27-Aluminm solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used as a tool to study their local structure and behavior. The changes in the Al coordination of the hydrotalcite compounds were investigated with one dimensional (1D) solid-state magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy. The two broad resonances arising from the structurally different Al coordinations of these compounds were clearly resolved by two dimensional (2D) triple quantum magic angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR spectroscopy.

It has been found that mesoporous structures of MCM-41 and MCM-48 disintegrate readily in distilled water around 370 K, while the structures can be stable in 100%-steam of 1 atmospheric pressure at much higher temperatures around 820 K. Thus, the structure disintegration is thermodynamically more favorable in water than under the steaming condition. X-ray powder diffraction and magic angle spinning 29Si NMR spectroscopy indicate that the disintegration of the mesoporous structures in water occurs due to silicate hydrolysis.
