Abstract
Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. This mini-review provides an update on the recent use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for spatially resolved chemical reaction monitoring. Examples demonstrating the use of 1H, 7Li, 11B, 19F, and 27Al MRI are included. © Copyright 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Over the previous three decades, the use of MRI for studying dynamic physical and chemical processes of materials systems has grown significantly. This mini-review provides a brief introduction to relevant principles of MRI, including methods of spatial localization, factors contributing to image contrast, and chemical shift imaging. A few historical examples of 1H MRI for reaction monitoring will be presented, followed by a review of recent research including 1H MRI studies of gelation and biofilms, 1H, 7Li, and 11B MRI studies of electrochemical systems, in vivo glucose metabolism monitored with 19F MRI, and in situ temperature monitoring with 27Al MRI.
