Hyperpolarized noble gases (HNGs), polarized to approximately 50% or higher, have led to
major advances in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of porous structures and air-filled …

This chapter summarizes the recent developments in both convention and hyperpolarized
(HP) xenon NMR experiments. Xenon NMR has been used in a growing number of …

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is not a sensitive technique by almost any comparison
with other measurement methods. Even in staggeringly high magnetic fields, the Zeeman …

Catalysed diesel particulate filter (DPF) monoliths are hierarchical porous solids, as
demonstrated by mercury porosimetry. Establishing structure-transport relationships …

A time-of-flight imaging technique is introduced to visualize fluid flow and dispersion through
porous media using NMR. As the fluid flows through a sample, the nuclear spin …

Different NMR techniques were combined to obtain the structure and velocity information for
a systematic investigation of fixed beds with low aspect ratio (tube diameter to particle …

The velocity distributions of flow of a single fluid phase through packed beds of various
geometrical properties were investigated by combining magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) …

As a non-invasive technique, NMR spectroscopy allows the observation of molecular
transport in porous media without any disturbance of their intrinsic molecular dynamics. The …

Gas‐phase magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been used to investigate heterogeneity
in mass transport in a packed bed of commercial, alumina, catalyst supports. Hyperpolarized …

Abstract Micelle‐templated silica (MTS)‐composites with flexible macroscopic shape,
monomodal or bimodal (hierarchical) pore structure, and high mechanical stability can be …
