description

Abstract Fast field cycling (FFC) NMR relaxometry is emerging as a powerful tool to investigate physical chemistry properties of many systems in a number of different scientific fields. As an example, it is used to investigate environmental issues such as soil erosion, water, and nutrient dynamics in environmentally relevant porous systems, to discriminate among different kinds of foodstuff in order to understand possible source of adulteration and fraud, to evaluate the properties of new materials, and much more. In the present study, an overview about the possible applications of FFC NMR relaxometry is given. The paper is not intended to be exhaustive. Rather, it is thought to provide an ensemble of information as wider as possible in order to allow scientists from different cultural extractions to “open their eyes” in fields to which they are not familiar, thereby hoping that new and inspirational ideas can emerge from the reading of this paper.
