Abstract
Semiquantitative analysis of the infrared spectra from 650 to 4000 cm( -1) of nine coal tar pitches supplies excellent information on the con centrations of several functionalities. Relations have been found betw een the infrared data and the solubility, coke yield and composition o f the volatile fraction of these pitches. The results contribute to a better understanding of pitch structure.
