It was found that the variation of vitrinite reflectance distribution of the coking-coal will result in the change in coke microstructure which further affects thermal properties of the coke.

Especially the measurement on the vitrinite reflectance can optimize the supervision of coal source, instruct the coal blending and ensure the smooth production.

Based on the tested data of pressure and vitrinite reflectance of some wells in sedimentary basin, the abnormal high pressure is not the only factor to retard the increase of vitrinite reflectance(R_o).
