Popis: It is now generally accepted that single pulse excitation (SPE) or Bloch decay measurements are essential for obtaining reliable aromaticity values for coals by solid-state 13 C NMR although such measurements are considerably more time consuming than cross-polarization (CP). Just as with normal CP, SPE can be combined with dipolar dephasing (DD) to derive nonprotonated aromatic carbon concentrations. This approach has been applied to four of the Argonne premium coal samples (APCS, N. Dakota lignite, Wyodak, Illinois no. 6, and Pocahontas), two vitrinite concentrates from UK bituminous coals, and an anthracite. The results have been compared with those obtained from CP and, for the APCS, nonprotonated aromatic carbon concentrations derived indirectly from FTIR and 1 H CRAMPS
