Title: Probing coal architecture by magnetic resonance microscopy.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:12380

Time-resolved MRM investigations of a well-characterized suite of cross-linked polymers have yielded information on the nature of the solvent transport dynamics and mechanical relaxation of the networks. Network response parameters were then used to assess the macroscopic properties and cross-link densities of polymers with the degree of curing. This new approach is presently being developed to elucidate the complex macromolecular nature of coals and the variation with coal rank.
