Abstract

The data provided by H1 and C13 NMR spectra have frequently been used to characterize the structure of coal derived liquids. Average structural parameters, average molecular structures and functional group concentrations can all be calculated based on NMR data. The NMR data can find much broader application, however, than merely characterizing structure. This paper reviews some of the basic methods for applying NMR to the problem of property estimation for coal derived systems. The NMR based estimates can be much more accurate than conventional property correlations.
