RI 3539 Shrinkage Of Coke ? Introduction (0924011c-3ed3-42e0-a3e3-108355ef676c)

Various test results5/ have been interpreted as indicating that cokes from certain coals shrink to a marked extent and that other cokes show very little shrinkage; but no comprehensive experimental study of the shrinkage of coke after its formation and of the factors influencing this shrinkage has come to the attention of the authors.]
