Abstract

Self-diffusion coefficients of toluene, acetonitrile, chloroform, and dichloromethane in swollen 1-20% cross-linked polystyrene beads have been determined by application of a new model to magnetization-transfer 13C NMR data for exchange of solvent in and out of the beads. The results agree closely with solvent self-diffusion coefficients in the same samples determined independently by the pulsed-gradient spin-echo NMR method. The new method also has been applied to self-diffusion of dichloromethane in macroporous polystyrene beads. © 1987 American Chemical Society.
