Twenty one US coals, of widely ranging rank, have been carbonized under controlled conditions to 1000 °C, and the reactivity in air at 500 °C of the resulting chars or cokes has been measured by a gravimetric method. The reactivities lie within a well-defined band when plotted against rank of the parent coal. The lower-rank coal chars are more reactive than those prepared from high-rank coals. In extreme cases, the reactivity found for a Montana lignite char is some 100 times as great as that obtained for a char produced from a Pennsylvania low-volatile coal. Variation of reactivity with heat-treatment temperature (600 to 1000 °C) has been studied for three coals. As heat-treatment temperature increases, there is a decrease in reactivity. Some results are reported on the effects which mineral matter and pore structure have on the reactivity parameter. Chars containing high concentrations of magnesium and calcium impurities are most reactive. The amount of macro and transitional porosity in a char has a marked influence on reactivity.
