Abstract：

Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is one of powerful tools to study local structure and dynamics of organic molecules at the molecular scale. So far, ssNMR spectroscopy has contributed to understanding molecular dynamics related to glass transition temperature and crystalline relaxation, as well as local packing structure and conformation of solid polymers. We are further pursuing possibilities of applications of ssNMR techniques to deeply structural study in polymer science. In this talk, three topics including i) chain trajectory, packing structure, ii) chemical reaction, and molecular dynamics of semicrystalline polymerswill be presented.
