Sodium-oxygen batteries have much improved cycle life due to highly concentrated electrolytes, according to US researchers who have used nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to identify the discharge byproducts.

[NMR900 blog] NSERC awards $2.3 million for lithium ion battery research
NSERC awards $2.3 million for lithium ion battery research
Gillian Goward (McMaster) is leading a major collaborative research project in lithium ion batteries which has been awarded a $2.3 million NSERC grant in the Automotive Partnership Canada program. The total value of this four years project is $3.5 million with contributions from industrial partners, GM Canada, Bruker Ltd., and Heka Electronics.
Researchers from McMaster include Prof. Gillian Goward, in electrochemistry and magnetic resonance, Prof. Gianluigi Botton, in electron microscopy, and Prof. Bartek Protas, in...

A reader asked me: "What is the shape of a 2-D peak?" and my answer was: "Exponential! (in time domain)". This is all you need to know, I think. The picture should help, as always. If you are reading this blog, it means that you have something like a computer. Even the iPhone is a computer (you can run programs on it) and can display my blog. I suspect, however, that you have a better computer, like I do.
You can use your computer to run simulations and more: you can ask it to...

How can NMR be used to differentiate between the 2 nitration products?
How can NMR be used to tell the difference between the major and minor product of nitration of 4-methylacetanilide?4-methylacetanilide ------HNO3----> major + minor pdtsPlease explain how you know where the chemical shifts are and what are the names of the final pdts? Thank you very much!
