Abstract
Solid-state NMR is one of the most powerful analytical methods for the structural characterization and dynamics of polymers. Owing to its intrinsically low signal sensitivity, however, analysis of trace chemical species supported on polymers remains challenging. Solid-state NMR with dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP-NMR) has recently attracted attention as a highly sensitive NMR measurement method for analyzing polymers. We recently investigated DNP-NMR for insoluble polymers, particularly cross-linked polymers, engineering plastics, and polymer-supported catalysts, and achieved high NMR signal sensitivity at a routinely accessible level. In this focus review, we present case studies on DNP-NMR measurements for a wide range of polymers.
