Broadband NMR Relaxometry as a Powerful Technique to Study Molecular Dynamics of Ionic Liquids.

Abstract

Fast field cycling nuclear magnetic resonance (FFC NMR) relaxometry technique has been demonstrated to be a useful analytical tool to investigate molecular dynamics in very diverse systems during the last decades. Of particular importance has been its application in studying ionic liquids, upon which this review article is based. Some of the research carried out on ionic liquids during the last ten years using this technique is highlighted in this article with the aim of promoting the favorable features of FFC NMR applied toward understanding dynamics of complex systems.
