Abstract
The results of a study of asphaltenes isolated from liquid cracking products (at a temperature of 500°C) of high-sulfur tars with an additive of dicumyl peroxide are presented. Characteristic changes in the composition of cracking products depending on the amount of the additive were found. Changes in the structural-group parameters of tar asphaltenes in the course of cracking were determined using 1H NMR-spectroscopic data, elemental composition, and molecular weight measurements. Asphaltene molecules became more condensed, and they were characterized by an increased concentration of aromatic fragments and a decrease in the number of naphthenic units and the length of aliphatic structures.
