✦ Synopsis


Static, magic angle spinning (MAS), variable angle spinning (VAS), dynamic angle spinning (DAS) and triple quantum magic angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR techniques were applied to separate and quantify oxygen signals from Al-O-Si and Si-O-Si sites of 17O-enriched samples of the mineral stilbite, a natural zeolite. DAS experiments showed that there was a distribution of quadrupolar coupling constants, asymmetry parameters and isotropic chemical shifts. Two methods were used to study the quantification problem of DAS and 3QMAS. Our results showed that DAS was quantitative. In 3QMAS, signal intensity from sites with larger quadrupolar coupling constants was reduced because of less efficient excitation. All techniques have shown a clear difference in rates of exchange between the two types of sites with interchannel H2O molecules.
