چکیده
A method for harvesting and purifying the thin polyamide (PA) active layer from thin-film composite (TFC) reverse osmosis (RO) membranes was developed, enabling quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements of composition cross-linking in PA that can be directly related to membrane performance. Using our chemical separation process, we report on four trimesoyl chloride (TMC)/isophthaloyl (IPC)/m-phenylene diamine (MPD)-based TFC which cross-link density intentionally reduced by replacing trifunctional TMC monomers with their linear IPC difunctional analog. While NMR results show a two-fold decrease causes 30% increase salt passage, addition analog leads increased polar amine groups reduce water permeance due tighter binding membrane. Our demonstrate 13C cross polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS) is powerful quantitatively monitoring purity, cross-linking, will an essential tool ascertaining atomistic models structure.

متن کاملChemical and carbon-13 cross-polarization magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance characterization of logyard fines from British Columbia.
Phasing out beehive burners and rising costs for landfilling have increased the need to widen options for utilization of the smaller size fractions of woody wastes generated during log handling and sawmilling in British Columbia. We characterized several size classes of logyard fines up to 16 mm sampled from coastal and interior operations. Total C, total N, ash, and condensed tannin concentrat...
متن کاملCharacterization of high-tannin fractions from humus by carbon-13 cross-polarization and magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance.
Condensed tannins can be found in various parts of many plants. Unlike lignin there has been little study of their fate as they enter the soil organic matter pool and their influence on nutrient cycling, especially through their protein-binding properties. We extracted and characterized tannin-rich fractions from humus collected in 1998 from a black spruce [Picea mariana (Mill.) Britton et al.]...
متن کاملHigh-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of biological tissues using projected magic angle spinning.
High-resolution NMR spectra of materials subject to anisotropic broadening are usually obtained by rotating the sample about the magic angle, which is 54.7 degrees to the static magnetic field. In projected magic angle spinning (p-MAS), the sample is spun about two angles, neither of which is the magic angle. This provides a method of obtaining isotropic spectra while spinning at shallow angles...
متن کاملTailored low-power cross-polarization under fast magic-angle spinning.
High static magnetic fields and very fast magic-angle spinning (MAS) promise to improve resolution and sensitivity of solid-state NMR experiments. The fast MAS regime has permitted the development of low-power cross-polarization schemes, such as second-order cross-polarization (SOCP), which prevent heat deposition in the sample. Those schemes are however limited in bandwidth, as weak radio-freq...
