Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with 55% and 61% syndiotacticity, and their related dry and hydrated gels obtained by two different freeze-thawing cycles have been investigated using the solid-state 13C CP-MAS NMR technique. From a comparative analysis of the spectra, evidence was obtained that the gelati

Abstract
The change in the conformation of the flexible OCH~2~CH~2~CH~2~O segment of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) monofilament caused by drawing was investigated by means of the γ‐gauche effect on the ^13^C solid‐state NMR chemical shift of the internal methylene carbon, combined with the NMR relaxations. The conformation around the OCH~2~ and CH~2~O bonds for as‐spun fiber was trans/trans. On drawing, followed by heat treatment, the conformation changed to gauche/gauche. The ratio of gauche/gauche to trans/trans for the drawn PTT fiber was determined quantitatively. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract We used gravimetric analysis (GA) and ^13^C solid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to study solid‐phase transition from the transparent single crystal of L‐serine (L‐Ser) monohydrate to a turbid powder. We found that L‐Ser monohydrate loses water molecules and transforms into an a
Solid poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyric] acid was examined by high-resolution 13C MAS NMR, differential scanning calorimetry and infrared spectroscopy. The 13C methyl group resonance consists of three components: the rigid amorphous phase, the crystalline phase and the mobile amorphous phase. Spectral decon
## Abstract **Summary:** The structure and stability of hydrogen bonds in __α__‐chitin were investigated by ^13^C solid‐state NMR measurements at different temperatures. Splitting of the carbonyl carbon signal for __α__‐chitin was interpreted as two types of hydrogen bonding; the peaks at 173.5 and
