Abstract: | Samples of coals from the Latrobe Valley, Victoria, were exposed to certain gases and vapours, and the resulting swelling was measured by a novel technique using displacement of mercury. Methanol and acetone were found to be powerful swelling agents: carbon dioxide, at the pressures used (up to 100 k Pa) caused no measurable swelling. The carbon dioxide results are relevant to the measurement of surface areas of coals by carbon dioxide adsorption. |
