In most cases the proton relaxation of adsorbed liquids and gases is caused by the proton-proton dipolar interaction and the coupling between protons and paramagnetic impurities (e. g. Fe3+-ions) of the adsorbent. The latter relaxation mechanism, however, has been neglected up till now although in some commercial silica gels it’s contribution can be the most important one (see Section 2.2). Consequently, motional phenomena of adsorbed molecules can only be studied by NMR techniques if the relative largeness of these two relaxation rates has been estimated, as can be done by investigating the dependence of proton relaxation-times on the H/D-ratio. Relaxation-time measurements in the temperature range from —100° to +80°C indicate that proton transfers occur between surface hydroxils and adsorbed particles. In a sample of 3/4 statistical monolayer the presence of two different types of water, clusters containing 95% of the adsorbed molecules with correlation time τc2=2.7 · 10-10 s (0°C), and more individually adsorbed particles with τc1 ⪆ 2.3 ·10-8 (0°C), has been inferred (see Section 2.1).
