摘要
The particle/vapour interfacial tension of three types of powdered coal was determined by means of the solidification front techniques in organic as well as in aqueous medial. The results obtained from experiments performed in organic media show that the three types of coal have an intermediate hydrophobicity in the surface tension range of 30-40 mJ m-2 at 20.degree. C. However, in the presence of water the coal is markedly more hydrophilic with a surface tension near that of water. This striking difference suggest that one and the same coal sample may have two effective surface tensions or even a range of surface tensions, depending on the suspending liquid. It appears that, in water, the coal particles acquire a thick hydration layer so that they are perceived by other phases present as "black water particles.
