Abstract:

In recent years, low-field magnetic resonance has increasingly demonstrated its application of relaxation and diffusion measurements for the study of materials, catalysts, cement hydration, fluid transport in rocks and soil, geological prospecting, and characterization of tissue properties for medical diagnosis. In particular, the application on porous materials has benefited tremendously from the development in the multi-dimensional methods. Porous media are ubiquitous in our environment and their microstructure (μm to mm scale) is essential in determining their properties and applications. This article will summarize a few key advances in basic physics and NMR methodology, and their applications.

Key words: porous media, microstructure, relaxation, diffusion, multi-dimensional methods
