Abstract
The thermal aging of polyamide 4,6 was investigated by DSC, SEM, WAXS, and ^1^H solid‐state NMR. Phase composition, chain mobility, morphology, and domain sizes were determined as a function of aging time. Proton transverse magnetization relaxation was measured at low resonance frequency, ^1^H wide‐line NMR spectra and ^1^H spin‐diffusion experiments were made at high resonance frequency. The NMR investigation shows that the aging process affects the rigid (crystalline), semi‐rigid (crystalline/amorphous interface), and the mobile (amorphous) fraction of polyamide 4,6. The amount of rigid (crystalline) fraction increases by about 10% upon aging at 200 °C for 1 000 h at the expense of the interfacial fraction. Chain mobility in crystalline phase is reduced upon aging suggesting perfections of the crystalline order.

Solid-state NMR was used to investigate the miscibility of LLDPE/polyamide-6 blends. Two different blends B1 and B2, obtained with LLDPE only and with LLDPE functionalized with diethyl succinate, respectively, as well as their individual components, were characterized by means of I3C selective techn
For the discussion of orientional states in liquid crystals, quadrupolar (2H NMR) and dipolar (1H NMR) interactions have mainly been exploited. There have also been attempts to describe the individual (regarding di †erent positions in a molecule) orientation and order by means of chemical shift info
