Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a powerful analytical technique which unveils the molecular structure by detecting the magnetic spins of a selected isotope. Fluorine-19 (19F) NMR is the primary characterization technique for fluorinated materials, which are widely used in advanced applications, such as energy storage, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and optical coatings. In this webinar, we will introduce the basic principle of NMR, discuss the key characteristics of fluorine NMR and showcase its capabilities in understanding the molecular structure of fluoropolymers.

About NMR
Nuclear magnetic resonance is a powerful analytical chemistry technique which detects the magnetic spin of the selected isotope. The spin response is highly dependent on the bonding environment. The common applications in industrial and R&D scenarios include molecular structure identification, purity analysis, monitoring reaction kinetics and studying material degradation. The common isotopes of detection are 1H, 13C, 19F, 29Si and 31P. Specifically, proton and fluorine are the two most sensitive isotopes and are routinely used for quantitative and trace level analysis. NMR is fast, non-destructive and only requires milligram level of sample.
