Proton multiple-quantum time-domain NMR combined with time–temperature superposition is a powerful method to study entangled chain dynamics. Overcoming the previous limitation to regimes II–IV of the tube model, this study extends the method to regime I (localized Rouse motions) by use of a pulse sequence adapted to shorter times, thus covering all relevant regimes for the model case of poly(butadiene) with molecular weights (M) between 10 and 200 kDa. We determine a value for the entanglement time that is consistent with current rheological results and confirm a value below 1 for the time scaling exponent of the segmental orientation autocorrelation function (OACF) in regime I previously observed by other NMR techniques. The origins of deviations from tube-model predictions are assessed by focusing on the dynamics of the chain centers in end-chain deuterated triblock samples and by dilution of probe chains to 15% in a deuterated matrix with M of 2 MDa. The study is complemented by self-diffusion coeffici...
