NMR revealed activated alumina-water interaction

  • Published:
Wuhan University Journal of Natural Sciences

Abstract

Three different spin-lattice relaxation times (T 1) of water were obtained in activated alumina-water slurry system, which indicate that there exist three states of water: bound water, pore water and bulk water. The chemical shift (δ H) decreases as the amount of water added to the system increases due to the differences in contribution of these three states of water in the samples. Theδ H value for adsorbed water decreases nearly linearly andT 1 increases with elevating temperature, which result from the decrease in the content of bound water by the increase in thermal motion.
