Functional group characteristics of coal treated with clean biomass surfactant via FTIR spectroscopy by Lingling Yang, Yuan Yuan

“…The experimental results reveal marked differences between raw, distilled water-treated, and surfactant-modified samples, particularly in the transformation of hydroxyl, aliphatic, and oxygen-containing functional groups: (1) The coal’s IR spectra are categorized into four key absorption bands, representing hydroxyl groups, aliphatic hydrocarbons, oxygen-containing functional groups, and aromatic hydrocarbons. (2) Surfactant treatment reduces the total hydroxyl group content but increases hydroxyl-hydrogen bonding, enhancing coal’s structural stability. (3) The aliphatic side chains in modified coal become shorter, with the 3:7 compound ratio yielding the highest aliphatic group content. (4) C-O-C stretching vibrations condense into aryl ethers, increasing aromatic ring condensation, particularly at the 3:7 ratio. (5) Aromatic hydrocarbon diversity decreases as side chains detach from benzene rings, with ortho-trisubstituted structures (3 H) becoming more prominent. …”
