Abstract

The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance signals of coal can be enhanced to an appreciable amount by means of Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP).

A brief outline is given of the three possible mechanisms, namely the Overhauser, Solid State and Thermal Mixing effect. The H and 13C DNP enhancement PH respectively PC have been investigated of 32 coal samples with a volatile matter percentage between 7 and 60%. The results are: (i) At high microwave powers (8W) PH is mainly governed by the Solid State effect, whereas PC is determined by a combination of the Solid State and Thermal Mixing effect; (ii) Both PH and PC decrease with decreasing coal rank, and become close to unity when VM% > 45%. The use of DNP in 13C spectroscopy in coal has been investigated and examples of applications are given.
