Acquisition of a 300 MHz Solid State NMR

向杜兰大学提供部分支持，以获得一台300 MHz宽口径固态核磁共振（NMR）光谱仪，用于化学和化学工程系的10名教职员工和42名博士后研究员以及研究生/本科生的持续研究。这所大学现有的核磁共振仪器没有固态能力。固态光谱学已成为化学、化学工程和材料科学中重要的固态材料的结构表征和动态研究的重要工具。因此，购买这台仪器将加强两个部的分析仪器能力，并将为确定大块结晶和玻璃材料的特性带来重要的新能力。主要用户将采用固态核磁共振技术研究聚合物（生物，有机和无机），陶瓷和沸石材料。该工具还将用于支持涉及工业-大学合作的现有研究。

Partial support is provided to the Tulane University to acquire a 300-MHz, wide-bore, solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometer for on-going research of 10 faculty members and 42 postdoctoral fellows and graduate/undergraduate students in the Departments of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. The existing NMR instruments at this University have no solid-state capability. Solid-state spectroscopy has become an essential tool for the structural characterization and dynamic study of solid-state materials important to chemistry, chemical engineering, and materials science. Accordingly, the purchase of this instrument will enhance the analytical instrumentation capability of two Departments and will bring significant new capability for the characterization of bulk crystalline and glassy materials. The major users will employ solid-state NMR for the investigation of polymeric (biological, organic and inorganic), ceramic, and zeolitic materials. The instrument will also be used in the support of existing research involving industrial-university collaborations.
