| Title | Research data supporting "An Integrated Total Neutron Scattering - NMR Approach for the Study of Heterogeneous Catalysis" |
| Description | Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and total neutron scattering techniques are established methods for the characterisation of liquid phases in confined pore spaces during chemical reactions. Herein, we describe the first combined total neutron scattering -NMR setup as a probe for the catalytic heterogeneous reduction of benzene-d6 with D2 in 3 wt.% Pt/MCM-41. |

| Title | Research data supporting "In situ Reaction Monitoring in Heterogeneous Catalysts by a Benchtop NMR Spectrometer" |
| Description | Understanding the reactivity and mass transport properties of porous heterogenous catalysts is important for the development of new materials. Whereas MRI has previously been used to correlate chemical kinetics and hydrodynamics under operando conditions, this paper demonstrates that a modern benchtop NMR spectrometer is a suitable alternative to obtain diverse reaction information in porous heterogeneous catalyst materials on a smaller scale. Besides information about the chemical conversion within the pores, they can also be used to study changes of surface interaction by T1/T2 NMR relaxometry techniques and changes in mass transport by PFG NMR from a single chemical reaction. |

| Results and Impact | Academic research relating to the Grant awarded was presented at the International Conference on Magnetic Resonance MIcrosocpy, held in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Camda between August 13 and August 17th 2017. The Principal Investigator was invited to give a talk and the title of the talk was: Combining MRI with Other Imaging and Measurement Modalities: Applications to Pharmaceutical and Catalysis Research. The talk was well recived and attracted several questions from the 160 strong audience. This was the first time results from the combined neutron/NMR apparatus have been presented on an international stage. |
