✦ Synopsis

The segmental motion of poly(ethylene oxide) grafted on silica has been investigated by 1H and 13C magnetic resonance. The local monomer units concentration on an interface is evaluated. Two independent techniques, namely magnetic relaxation and magic angle spinning, are used and give a good agreement for the physical parameters describing the monomer units concentration on the surface. This behavior has been studied as a function of molecular weight of the chains, and each time also as a function of temperature.
