Certain high-sulphur-containing, high-volatile bituminous (hvb) coals have been converted into products which are almost completely soluble in chloroform. These products were obtained by a series of reactions involving initial oxidation with 2N nitric acid, depolymerization with boron trifluoride-ph

β¦ Synopsis
The rheological behaviour of several bituminous coals has been evaluated by means of a constant torque Gieseler plastometer, utilizing both steadily increasing (3Β°C min-') and isothermal (410Β°C) temperature conditions. The results indicated that under either thermal treatment, the coals investigated showed predominantly pseudoplastic behaviour. The greatest degree of non-Newtonian behaviour occurred at or near the temperature of maximum fluidity for coals heated at 3Β°C min-', or within the early stages of melting when isothermal heating was used. Empirical relationships relating the Gieseler fluidities to apparent viscosity were derived from the data.
