Abstract
The effects of a Michelin tire tread and its various chemical componen ts (butadiene rubber, aromatic oil, carbon, sulfur, ZnO) on the free r adical intensities N of Blind Canyon coal using in-situ electron spin resonance spectroscopy are reported from ambient to 500 degrees C. The se experiments show that the tire tread and its components lower the t emperature of thermal cracking of the coal and promote enhanced cracki ng as evidenced by increased magnitudes of N for temperatures below 44 0 degrees C. These results support the reported improved liquefaction of the coal with waste tire polymers.
