Application of NMR in polymer characterization Check Access

This chapter addresses how developments of solid-state (ss) NMR have contributed to the understanding of the structure and dynamics of various polymers covering synthetic to supramolecular and natural systems as reported in the past decade. Aspects include the packing, conformation, chain trajectory, chemical reactions, and molecular dynamics of synthetic polymers, energy storage materials, supramolecular polymers, and natural polymers. The complete coverage of all polymer systems is beyond our scope, however, the specific systems described are treated as outstanding examples to demonstrate the recent progress in the field.
