Combining macroscopic and microscopic diffusion studies in zeolites using NMR techniques.

In this study the zero length column (ZLC) technique is extended to the case where the decay of the adsorbed phase concentration is observed directly by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). An adsorption-desorption apparatus compatible with a 400-MHz NMR spectrometer was developed. It operates with nitrogen or helium as the inert purge gas.
