Micrometric hollow silica spheres can effectively reduce magnetic field inhomogeneities when employed as a stationary phase in the context of NMR chromatography. We here provide a description of the NMR line broadening phenomenon for physically representative collections of hollow spheres with different geometries and filling factors. Our results highlight how, within the explored conditions, a proper modelling of the line broadening phenomenon should consider the enhanced relaxation of the spins during their diffusion across the spherical shells, and possibly other slow motional effects.

Abstract
Micrometric hollow silica spheres can effectively reduce magnetic field inhomogeneities when employed as a stationary phase in the context of NMR chromatography. We here provide a description of the NMR line broadening phenomenon for physically representative collections of hollow spheres with different geometries and filling factors. Our results highlight how, within the explored conditions, a proper modelling of the line broadening phenomenon should consider the enhanced relaxation of the spins during their diffusion across the spherical shells, and possibly other slow motional effects.File in questo prodotto:
