Abstract

The ratio between two different 29Si atoms in chloromethylphenyl isobutyl Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS) was determined based on the quantitative cross polarization (QCP) (Shu et al., Chem. Phys. Lett. 462 (2008) 125) in solid-state NMR. For a 29Si/1H spin system, cross polarization and depolarization together with the reciprocity relation were performed with optimized experimental conditions. It saves considerable experimental time compared to the 29Si direct polarization experiment. The same method was further applied to octavinyl-POSS nanocomposites containing perfluoropolyether (PFPE) for deriving directly and accurately the average numbers of reacted vinyl groups, which may not be obtained by combining FTIR and solution 1H NMR. In principle, the aforementioned method proves to be valuable in quantitative characterization of silicon related structures in bulk materials.
