This paper discusses the applicability of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and small angle neutron scattering (SANS) techniques for determining the porosity, pore size distribution and internal specific surface area in coals. The method is noninvasive, fast, inexpensive and does not require complex sample preparation. It uses coal grains of about 0.8 mm size mounted in standard pellets as used for petrographic studies.Assuming spherical pore geometry, the scattering data are converted into the pore size distribution in the size range 1 nm (10 Å) to 20 μm (200,000 Å) in diameter, accounting for both open and closed pores. FTIR as well as SAXS and SANS data for seven samples of oriented whole coals and corresponding pellets with vitrinite reflectance (Ro) values in the range 0.55% to 5.15% are presented and analyzed. Our results demonstrate that pellets adequately represent the average microstructure of coal samples.The scattering data have been used to calculate the maximum surface area available for methane adsorption. Total porosity as percentage of sample volume is calculated and compared with worldwide trends. By demonstrating the applicability of SAXS and SANS techniques to determine the porosity, pore size distribution and surface area in coals, we provide a new and efficient tool, which can be used for any type of coal sample, from a thin slice to a representative sample of a thick seam. 相似文献

“Hard” carbon-based Pennsylvania anthracite was deformed in the steady-state at high temperatures and pressures in a series of coaxial and simple shear experiments designed to constrain the role of shear strain and strain energy in the graphitization process. Graphitization did not occur in coaxially deformed anthracite. Nonetheless, dramatic molecular ordering occurs at T 700°C, with average bireflectance values (%) increasing from 1.68 at 700°C to 6.36 at 900°C. Romin is lowest and bireflectance is highest in zones of high strain (e.g., kink bands) at all temperatures.In anthracite samples deformed in simple shear over the 600°–900°C range at 1.0 GPa, average Romax (%) values increase up to 11.9, whereas average bireflectance (%) values increase up to 10.7. Bireflectance increases with increasing shear strain and locally exceeds 12.5%. Graphitization occurs in several anthracite sample deformed in simple shear at 900°C. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirms the presence of graphite with d002=0.3363 nm. These data strongly suggest that shear strain is the dominant factor responsible for the natural transformation of anthracite to graphite at temperatures far below the 1600°C required for graphitization of other hard carbons in earlier hydrostatic heating experiments at 0.5 GPa pressure. 相似文献

Significant differences in coal petrography, palynology and coal quality were found between the Lower Block and Upper Block Coal Members (Brazil Formation, Pennsylvanian) in Daviess County, Indiana. The Lower Block Coal Member ranges in thickness from 51 to 74 cm and the Upper Block Coal Member ranges from 20 to 65 cm. Average sulfur content and ash yield of the Lower Block coal (0.98%, 7.65%) are lower than in the Upper Block coal. Megascopically, the coals show distinct differences. The Lower Block is a banded coal with numerous thin fusain horizons and a thin clay parting in the lower third of the seam. The Upper Block coal has a dulling-upward trend, with a bright clarain found at the base that grades into a clarain and then into a durain in the upper portion of the seam. Vitrinite content of the Lower Block coal ranges from 63% to 78%, with the highest vitrinite content found in the middle portion of the seam. In the Upper Block coal, vitrinite content ranges from 40% to 83%, with the highest values found in the lower part of the seam. Ash yield is higher in the upper part of the Upper Block coal, reaching up to 40%. The Lower Block coal is dominated by lycopod trees and tree ferns. The Upper Block coal shows marked differences in spore assemblages between lower and upper parts of the seam. The lower half is dominated by large lycopod trees and tree ferns, similar to the Lower Block coal. The upper half is dominated by small lycopods, mainly Densosporites and Radiizonates. These differences between the Lower Block and Upper Block Coal Members are significant correlation tools applicable to mining exploration and chronostratigraphy. 相似文献
