Abstract

We report measurements of nuclear spin-lattice relaxation and dynamic polarization of protons in ethyleneglycol-alcohol mixtures at 9 kG and 4·2 K and 1·3 K. Comparison of experimental results with a proposed model of spin-lattice relaxation indicates that the role of dipolar and exchange reservoirs of paramagnetic ions in nuclear relaxation is not necessarily negligible, particularly in the presence of high concentration of paramagnetic impurities. The influence of methanol is to enhance the dynamic polarization of protons compared to pure ethyleneglycol, in the most favourable cases by almost 50% in our experimental conditions.
