“…For NMR relaxation of water protons in confining systems, mechanisms in which water molecules are adsorbed on and desorbed from the solid surface moving on the surface by translational diffusion and at the same time changing their orientation, have been proposed. ,,,,, In particular, the “reorientations mediated by translational displacements” model (RMTD), in which adsorbate molecules adopt preferential orientations relative to the local surface, has been suggested by Kimmich et al ,,,, and demonstrated to be valid for several confining systems, such as porous media, particle aggregates, and hydrogels. ,− …”
