Abstract

The spin‐lattice relaxation time (T~1~) of water adsorbed on collagen fibers was determined at six frequencies and temperatures varying from 25Β° to βˆ’80Β°C. Care was taken to eliminate the contributions to the signal of protons other than those in the adsorbed water. Quantitative calculations were made on T~1~ and the results were compared with the experimental data. It is suggested that a maximum of about 0.50–0.55 g water per g collagen forms a hydration layer, which cannot be frozen down to βˆ’90Β°C and exhibits a distribution of motional correlation times. For collagen samples containing a larger quantity of adsorbed water, the additional water molecules behave like ordinary isotropic water, having a single correlation time and a freezing temperature of about βˆ’10Β°C.
