摘要

We use H-1, H-2, and Li-7 nuclear magnetic resonance to investigate local and diffusive dynamics of LiCl-7H(2)O and LiCl-7D(2)O solutions in pristine and functionalized silica nanopores in a component-selective manner. Recently, we showed that the solution dynamics become slower when the diameter of the pristine pores is reduced. Here, we determine the effects of (aminopropyl)triethoxysilane and dye surface functionalizations on the motions of the water molecules and lithium ions from ambient temperatures down to the glass transition. The local and diffusive solution dynamics are similar in both functionalized pores but, on average, slower than in pristine pores with comparable diameters. When the exchange between different confinement regions is sufficiently slow at reduced temperatures, bimodal water and lithium dynamics may be observed. We attribute this bimodality to bulk-like motion in the pore centers and slowed-down motion at the pore walls. For the lithium ions, a bimodality observed in the pristine pores is absent in the functionalized ones. We conjecture that the steric hindrance and electrostatic interactions associated with the grafted functional groups interfere with the formation of a defined electric double layer, while the enhanced surface roughness and unequal charge distribution result in overall slower dynamics. Thus, the nature of the walls is an important parameter for the solution dynamics. Thereby, in situ measurements of the pH value inside the silica pores using the grafted dye molecules reveal that observed changes in the pH value in response to the surface functionalization are of limited relevance for the water reorientation.
