Journal ArticleDOI
A rapid and convenient method for measuring the swelling of coals by solvents
TL;DR: The volumetric swelling procedure developed by Liotta was applied to a pair of coals using 10 solvents and the results were compared with the results of gravimetric swelling experiments as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alkylation and depolymerization reactions of coal: a selective review with supplementary experiments☆
Journal ArticleDOI
Calorimetric and counterion binding studies of the interactions between micelles and ions. The observation of lyotropic series
John W. Larsen,Linda J. Magid +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the heat of transfer of a variety of salts from water to solutions of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), DTAB, and sodium dodecyl sulfate (NaLS) and found that favorable binding depends on how closely they can approach the charged micellar surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of aqueous alcoholic solvents on counterion-binding to CTAB micelles
John W. Larsen,Lynn B Tepley +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the effect of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and t-butanol on the degree of dissociation of micelles over a wide range of alcohol concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coal swelling in binary solvent mixtures: pyridine―chlorobenzene and N,N-dimethylaniline―alcohol
Thomas K. Green,John W. Larsen +1 more
TL;DR: Pyridine disrupts the non-covalent crosslinks in coal, so the addition of very small amounts of pyridine leads to an enormous increase in the uptake of chlorobenzene by the coal as discussed by the authors.
