Abstract:

Free radicals play important roles in the metamorphic process, spontaneous combustion, pyrolysis and liquefacton of coal. Accurate quantitative determination of the free radical content in coal is important in studying the mechanism of coal pyrolysis and liquefaction. In this work, the stability and repeatability of quantitative measurement of total free radicals in coal by ESR method were investigated. With a standard curve method, the RSD of both stability and repeatability were less than 4%. The linearity of the method was in the range of 6.12×1015~1.47×1017, and correlation coefficient above 0.99.

Key words: ESR, standard curve method, free radical, coal
