Abstract
] and coal-[Bmim][Ac] mixtures is much shorter than that of coal alone, and the MLR, HRR, and THR values are larger. This may be caused by the poor thermal stability of the two nonfluorine ionic liquids that began to decompose and release heat prior to coal, providing a large amount of heat for the low-temperature oxidation of coal and thus accelerating coal oxidation and combustion. Although the F-containing ionic liquids show the ability to inhibit spontaneous combustion of coal to some extent, their organic cations are potentially combustible and release large amounts of heat, smoke, and CO under high temperatures.
