Abstract

Coal has a highly complex chemical structure, similar to polymers, coal is a macromolecular structure composed of a large number of “similar compounds”, which is called the basic structural unit. Understanding coal structure is the basis of its transformation and utilization. Shendong (SD) coal was analyzed by FTIR, XRD, XPS, and NMR. The results show that SD coal normalized structure formula is C100H68.5O35.7N1.2S0.2 and the average number of aromatic rings is 1.98. –CH2— content accounts for about 82% in aliphatic C–H region, and the ratio of ether bond C–O, aromatic ether C–O and CO is about 2:1:11 in oxygen-containing functional group region. The d002, LC, La and NC of SD coal microcrystalline structure parameters are 0.1832 nm, 1.4688 nm, 2.0852 nm and 9.017, respectively. Aromatic carbon and aliphatic carbon ratios of SD coal are 55.67% and 29.97%, aromatic cluster size and average methylene chain length are 0.224 and 1.817. Based on these structural parameters, molecular model of SD coal was constructed with 13C SSNMR experimental spectra as a reference. The model was constructed with an atom composition of C214H214O49N2S.
