✦ Synopsis

Pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR diffusion measurements in heterogeneous media may lead to erroneous results due to the disturbing influence of internal magnetic field gradients. Here, we present a simple theoretical model which allows one to interpret data obtained by stimulated spin echo PFG NMR in the presence of spatially varying internal field gradients. Using the results of this theory, the genuine self-diffusion coefficients in heterogeneous media may be extrapolated from the dependence of the apparent diffusivities on the dephasing time of the simulated echo PFG NMR sequence. Experimental evidence that such extrapolation yields satisfactory results for self-diffusion of hexadecane in natural sediments (sand) and of n-octanol in doped MgO pastes is provided.

Transport in cellulose gels has been studied with ethylene glycol and crown ether (15-5) as "probes" using an NMR spin-echo technique. The cellulose content was varied in range 20-5570 (w/w). The retardation of diffusion was found to be adequately described by simple first-order expressions in conce
