Trialkoxysilane haben sich in den vergangenen Jahren als vielseitig einsetzbare Organosilane erwiesen. Die Einsatzgebiete erstrecken sich vom Witterungsschutz von Bauwerken über haftvermittelnde Eigenschaften in der Glasfaserindustrie, bei Dicht- und Klebstoffen, in Farben und Lacken bis hin zur Modifizierung von polymeren Werkstoffen.
Kommerzielle Benchtop-NMR-Spektrometer haben das Potential auch im Bereich der Silanchemie als Online-Methode zur Reaktionsüberwachung und für die Qualitätskontrolle eingesetzt zu werden. Interessante NMR-Kerne für die oben genanntem Produkte sind 1H und 29Si. In einer gemeinsamen Forschungskooperation zwischen EVONIK und BAM wurde anhand verschiedener Fallstudien die Anwendbarkeit der Niederfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie zur chemischen Analyse von Silanen evaluiert. Im Zuge der Fallstudien wurde gezeigt, wie Niederfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie die Möglichkeiten der Konzentrationsmessung auf neue Anwendungsgebiete erweitert, in denen bestehende Technologien wie z. B. NIR, Raman, UV/VIS, etc. mangels Referenzdaten nicht quantitativ eingesetzt werden können.
Fallstudie 1: Oligomerisierung
Eine Fallstudie setzte dazu an, den Hydrolyse- und Kondensationsverlauf mit einer geeigneten Online-NMR-Analytik zu beobachten, den Reaktionsfortschritt der Hydrolyse und Kondensation auf dieser Basis besser zu verstehen und zu optimieren. Zu diesem Zweck werden durch Zugabe von Wasser zunächst die Alkoxysubstituenten eines Trialkoxysilans hydrolysiert und entsprechende Silanole gebildet. Diese können dann über eine SiOH-Funktion an den zu modifizierenden Werkstoff anbinden und über weitere Silanolgruppen unter Ausbildung von Siloxaneinheiten vernetzen.
Fallstudie 2: Spaltung von cyclischen Silanverbindungen
In einer weiteren Fallstudie wurde die Kinetik der Aufspaltungen einer cyclischen Silanverbindung untersucht. Die Online-NMR-Analytik kam hierbei sowohl im Labor als auch in der industriellen Produktionsanlage zum Einsatz. Hierfür wurde eine vollständig automatisierte Einhausung verwendet, welche den Einsatz eines kommerziellen NMR-Spektrometers in explosionsgeschützten Bereichen ermöglicht.
Fallstudie 3: Qualitätskontrolle für Produktmischungen von Trialkoxysilanen
Für Produktmischungen eines Trialkoxysilans und weiteren Bestandteilen wie u. a. org. Stabilisatoren, Organozinnverbindungen, eines aromatischen Amins und org. Peroxide wurden quantitative 1H-Spektren akquiriert und eine automatische Auswertungsmethode basierend auf Indirect Hard Modeling (IHM) entwickelt. Für die Nebenkomponenten, deren Stoffmengenanteile bis zu 3 Mol-% betragen, wurden durch die zugrunde gelegte Methode typischerweise korrekte experimentelle Stoffmengenanteile gefunden, die weniger als 0,2 Mol-% vom Referenzwert abweichen.
The future competitiveness of the process industry and their providers depends on its ability to deliver high quality and high value products at competitive prices in a sustain-able fashion, and to adapt quickly to changing customer needs. The transition of pro-cess industry due to the mounting digitalization of technical devices and their provided data used in chemical plants proceeds. Though, the detailed characteristics and con-sequences for the whole chemical and pharmaceutical industry are still unforeseeable, new potentials arise as well as questions regarding the implementation. As the digitali-zation gains pace fundamental subjects like the standardization of device interfaces or organization of automation systems must be answered. Still, process industry lack of sufficient system and development concepts with commercial advantage from this trend.
Compared to traditional batch processes, intensified continuous production allows new and difficult to produce compounds with better product uniformity and reduced con-sumption of raw materials and energy. Flexible (modular) chemical plants can produce various products using the same equipment with short down-times between cam-paigns, and quick introduction of new products to the market.
Full automation is a prerequisite to realize such benefits of intensified continuous plants. In continuous flow processes, continuous, automated measurements and closed-loop control of the product quality are required. Consequently, the demand for smart sensors, which can monitor key variables like component concentrations in real-time, is increasing. Low-Field NMR spectroscopy presents itself as such an upcoming smart sensor1,2 (as addressed, e.g., in the CONSENS project3).
Systems utilizing such an online NMR analyzer benefits through short development and set-up times when applied to modular production plants starting from a desired chemi-cal reaction3. As an example for such a modular process unit, we present the design and validation of an integrated NMR micro mixer based on computational modelling suited for a desired chemical reaction. This method includes a proper design of a con-tinuous reactor, which is optimized through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for the demands of the NMR sensor as well as for the given reaction conditions. The system was validated with a chemical reaction process.
Intensified continuous processes are in focus of current research. Compared to traditional batch processes, intensified continuous production allows the synthesis of new and difficult producible compounds with better product uniformity and reduced consumption of raw materials and energy. Flexible (modular) chemical plants can produce various products using the same equipment with short down-times between campaigns, and quick introduction of new products to the market. Consequently, the demand for powerful Process Analytical Technologies, which can monitor key variables like component concentrations in real-time, is increasing. Low-Field NMR spectroscopy presents itself as such an upcoming smart sensor1,2 (as addressed, e.g., in the CONSENS project3,4).
Continuous measurement approaches can usually be differed in On- or In-line which both have advantages and drawbacks. On the one hand On-line measurements are easy to integrate even in existing setups through bypass systems, on the other hand issues like the representativity of the sampling must be considered. In the case of Inline analysis, where the whole fluid stream is analyzed, this issue can be avoided. Nevertheless, homogeneity of the mixture must be assured using NMR spectroscopy.
This talk shall give a brief summary of current Online and Inline Low-Field NMR approaches. Furthermore, current research results using a tailor-made flow cell for inline analysis are shown pointing out the working range as well as limitations of these method in combination with NMR spectroscopy.

Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy (SHS) is a spectrometric technique that combines both dispersive and interferometric features into a customizable instrument. The Basis of SHS is a Michelson interferometer with its mirrors replaced by diffraction gratings and with no moving parts. The output signal from SHS is the interferogram, which is recorded with a 1D or 2D pixel array detector. The spatial periodicity of the fringes on the interferogram is a function of the wavelength of the diffracted light. Using the Fast Fourier Transform, the original optical spectrum that enters SHS is retrieved. The light that is analyzed by SHS can come from a variety of sources. In our work, we used Raman scattering and Laser-Induced Plasma to perform quantitative and qualitative analyses. Figure 1 compares the performance of the SHS with that of high Resolution echelle and portable low-resolution asymmetrically crossed Czerny-Turner spectrometers (OO in Fig.1). The analyzed light came from the plasma induced on a stainless-steel reference material. The SHS exhibits the resolution comparable to that of the echelle spectrometer used, about 8000. Due to a high throughput of the SHS (theoretically, ~200 times higher than that of grating instruments), the number of spectra needed to be accumulated for comparable signal-to-noise ratios is much smaller than in the case of the echelle and comparable to OO spectrometers.
Examples of Raman SHS applied to several pure liquids are given in Fig. 2. Raman SHS was used in three different settings: (i) for classification of six types of oils, (ii) for univariate/multivariate analysis of binary mixture cyclohexane-isopropanol, and (iii) for multivariate analysis of glycerol solution in water. For the last two settings, chemometric analysis of the spectra yielded linear calibration plots over the range 1-90% of concentrations of isopropanol in cyclohexane, and 0.5-10% of glycerol in water.
Die BAM ist nahezu über die gesamte Wertschöpfungskette hinweg wissenschaftlich tätig. Von der sicheren und effizienten Wasserstofferzeugung (POWER-to-GAS), über die (Zwischen-)Speicherung von Wasserstoff in Druckgasspeichern bis hin zum Transport bspw. mittels Trailerfahrzeug zum Endverbraucher.
Komplettiert werden die Aktivitäten der BAM durch die sicherheitstechnische Beurteilung von wasserstoffhaltigen Gasgemischen, die Verträglichkeitsbewertung von Werkstoffen bis hin zur Detektion von Wasserstoffkonzentrationen über geeignete Sensorik, auch mittels ferngesteuerter Messdrohnen (sog. UAV-Drohnen).
Zudem untersucht die BAM proaktiv Schadensrisiken und Unfallszenarien für die Sicherheitsbetrachtung, um mögliche Schwachstellen aufzeigen und potenzielle Gefährdungen erkennen zu können.
Die Geräteentwicklungen im Bereich der Niederfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie im vergangenen Jahrzehnt ermöglichen den Einsatz kompakter, portabler Magnete mit geringen Streufeldern in Laborumgebungen und industriellen Produktionsanlagen. Somit werden neue Möglichkeiten für hochauflösende NMR-Experimente zur Reaktionsüberwachung eröffnet. Im Rahmen des EU-Projekts CONSENS wurden die Möglichkeiten dieser Methode umfassend anhand einer technisch bedeutenden Reaktion (elektrophile aromatische Substitutionsreaktionen) evaluiert.
Um die Flexibilität einer kontinuierlichen und modularen Pilotanlage durch Echtzeit- Qualitätskontrolle zu fördern, wurde ein vollständig automatisiertes Online- NMR-Modul entwickelt. Der Einsatz eines kommerziellen Niederfeld-NMR-Geräts im industriellen Umfeld wurde durch die entwickelten Lösungen der automatisierten Datenanlyse sowie durch ein zertifiziertes Sicherheitskonzept für den Betrieb in explosionsgefährdeten Zonen ermöglicht. Neben der Überwachung der Produktqualität wurden Online-NMR-Daten in einem neuen iterativen Optimierungsansatz zur Maximierung des Anlagenertrags eingesetzt und dienten als zuverlässige Referenz für die Kalibrierung eines Nahinfrarot-Spektrometers.
Für die Entwicklung einer robusten Datenauswertung der NMR-Spektren, die dem Anspruch der Flexibilität bei Produktwechseln genügt, wurden zunächst Versuche im Labormaßstab durchgeführt, um eine Datenbasis zu schaffen. In diesen Versuchen wurden die aromatischen Amine Anilin, p-Toluidin und p-Fluoranilin mit o-Fluornitrobenzol gekoppelt. Durch Zugabe einer Organolithium-Verbindung (Li- HMDS) findet ein Protonenaustausch zwischen dem primären Amin und Li-HMDS statt. Dies führt zu einer hohen Reaktionsenthalpie und instabilen Aryllithium-Verbindungen. Die Reaktionen wurden hinsichtlich anfallender Zwischenprodukte mittels Hochfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie analysiert.
Nachfolgend wurden die Reaktionen sowohl im Semi-Batch-Verfahren als auch im kontinuierlichen Laborbetrieb mit Online-Niederfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie und Online- Hochfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie untersucht. Da die gemessenen NMR-Spektren besonders im aromatischen Spektralbereich hohe Signalüberlappungen der Reaktanden aufweisen, wurden chemometrische Modelle entwickelt und anhand der Hochfeld-NMR-Methode validiert. Die verwendeten Durchflusszellen für die Niederfeld-NMR-Spektroskopie wurden hinsichtlich ihrer Anwendbarkeit für quantitative Messungen im kontinuierlichen Durchfluss untersucht. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass Messungen mit einer additiv gefertigten Keramikdurchflusszelle prinzipiell möglich sind.
Modular plants using intensified continuous processes represent an appealing concept to produce pharmaceuticals. It can improve quality, safety, sustainability, and profitability compared to batch processes, and it enables plug-and-produce reconfiguration for fast product changes. To facilitate this flexibility by real-time quality control, we developed a solution that can be adapted quickly to new processes and includes a compact Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometer for online quality monitoring as well as a new model-based control approach. The NMR sensor is a benchtop device enhanced to the requirements of automated chemical production including ro-bust evaluation of sensor data.
Here, we present alternatives for the quantitative determination of the analytes using modular, physically motivated models. These models can be adapted to new substances solely by the use of their corresponding pure component spectra, which can either be derived from experimental spectra as well as from quantum mechanical models or NMR predictors. Modular means that spec-tral models can simply be exchanged together with alternate reagents and products. Beyond that, we comprehensively calibrated an NIR spectrometer based on online NMR process data for the first time within an industrial plant. The integrated solution was developed for a metal organic reac-tion running on a commercial-scale modular pilot plant and it was tested under industrial conditions.
In the last years, the Process Analytical Technology (PAT) research field has become of great importance due to its connection with the industrial world. This industry related research, along with the evolutionary progress that technology has seen lately, has allowed that key analytical techniques in an industrial environment have undergone a radical development. One of these techniques has been the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). This technique, currently common in "online" industrial analysis, has seen a remarkable revolution, especially since the introduction of the microelectromechanical systems technology (MEMS) in the spectroscopy field. Nowadays it is possible to find compact spectrometers no bigger than a wristwatch in the market. Although there is an unavoidable question: can these compact spectrometers actually compete against the traditional spectrometers?
In this project different calibration parameters of two compact NIR spectrometers ("Spectral Engines Oy NIR-One Sensor NM2.0", with 1550 to 1950 nm range; and "NeoSpectra Si-ware", with 1300 to 2550 nm range) were evaluated, and the obtained results were compared with a reference spectrometer ("Bruker Optik GmbH Matrix-F", with 15000 to 4000 cm–1 range). In order to obtain the different calibration parameters, a sequence of quality performance tests were conducted. The results obtained after the different experiments carried out with both compact spectrometers prove that their performance is more than acceptable for routine analysis.
Afterward, model samples of different microplastics in soil at different known concentration were analyzed with all three spectrometers. Chemometric models capable to identify and classify microplastics in soil were established. For this analysis five of the most used plastics worldwide were used: polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). After the Principal component analysis (PCA), it can be seen that only the NIR-One NM2.0 is capable to differentiate all types of microplastics in soil at concentrations of 1–2 %, while the NeoSpectra Si-ware is unable to identify the PET sample.
Accelerating chemical process development and manufacturing along with quick adaption to changing customer needs means consequent transformation of former batch to continuous (modular) manufacturing processes. These are justified by an improved process control through smaller volumes, better heat transfer, and faster dynamics of the examined reaction systems.
As an example, for such modular process units we present the design and validation of an integrated nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) micro mixer tailor‐made for a desired chemical reaction based on computational modelling. The micro mixer represents an integrated modular production unit as an example for the most important class of continuous reactors. The quantitative online NMR sensor represents a smart process analytical field device providing rapid and non‐invasive chemical composition information without need for calibration. We describe the custom design through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for the demands of the NMR sensor as well as for the given reaction conditions. The system was validated with an esterification reaction as an example for a chemical reaction process.
Systems utilizing such an online NMR analyser benefits through short development and set‐up times based on “modular” spectral models. Such models can simply be built upon pure component NMR spectra within minutes to a few hours (i.e., assignment of the NMR signals to the components) instead of tedious DoE calibrations runs. We present a range of approaches for the automated spectra analysis moving from statistical approach, (i.e., Partial Least Squares Regression) to physically motivated spectral models (i.e., Indirect Hard Modelling and Quantum Mechanical calculations). The approach was validated for typical industrial reactions, such as hydrogenations or lithiations.
