- compared with ACFs indicates the spin magnetism of the non-magnetic guest FeCp2+ molecule induced by a charge-transfer host–guest interaction in the nanographene host. The larger ESR linewidth than that expected from the dipolar interaction estimated by the localized spin concentration suggests the
- exchange interaction between the nanographene and FeCp2 spins. The narrowing of the ESR linewidth of FeCp2-ACFs-55 upon higher excitation microwave power suggests the inhomogeneity of the environment for FeCp2+ molecules in the nanographene host. The observed induction of spin magnetism by the interfacial
- diamagnetic molecule (S = 0, no spin magnetism) compared with other metallocenes [17]. However, FeCp2 is easily oxidized to a monovalent cation, the electronic structure of which is magnetic (S = 1/2). Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy revealed the spin magnetism of cationic FeCp2 accommodated in

- overall interpretation is that the condition variety did not drastically affect ESR results of each sample. HGCM-PEGMEMA has the highest ESR in every condition that is in good agreement with the nonionic and highly flexible structure of PEG that can resist electrolytes and pH stimuli. On the other hand
- , PAAM and PAA depicted significantly decreased ESR results, which are confirming the subsequent network formation by occupying the pores. The gap between the ESR results in each network could be considered as their patching efficiency. HGCM-PAAM performed a slight decrease from low pH to high pH value
- due to amine groups' protonation on the polymer backbone via electrostatic attraction, and it responded to monovalent electrolyte with a higher ESR. With the increased pH, HGCM-PAA eventuated with enhanced ESR results arising from the dissociation of carboxylic acid groups. Swelling in saltwater
