FIELD: coal production.
SUBSTANCE: method for assessing the thermoplasticity of coal or a sintering additive. The technical result is achieved by a method for evaluating the thermoplasticity of coal or a sintering additive, in which a device is used that consists of a container for coal or a sintering additive and a stirrer placed in the container. At the same time, the penetration distance of coal or sintering additive is estimated based on value, which is a sign of the shape of the semi-coke formed during the rotation of the stirrer during heating of coal or sintering additive , and correlation between the specified value, which is an indication of the shape of the semi-coke, and the penetration distance of coal or sintering additive.
EFFECT: assessment of the thermoplasticity of coal or sintering additives without the use of special equipment.
