Abstract: To explore the influences of rock water acidity (PH = 4,5,7) over the microstructure and reburning behaviors of oxidized residual coal in the overlying goaf, the pore morphology, coal surface, functional group content and activity of pre-oxidized coal (O0) and water-immersed oxidized coal (OI) were analyzed by Low-temperature nitrogen adsorption and In-situ diffuse reflection experiments, combining with fractal dimension theory and functional group oxidation kinetics. The oxidation and reburning ability of coal samples has been analyzed by Thermogravimetric-Differential thermal analysis experiment. The results are as follows: Part of the type-III pores of pre-oxidized coal become type-II pores when immersed. The acidic solution has stronger corrosivity to O0 than distilled water, playing a role in smoothing coal and improving the uniformity of pore structure. The order of reburning ability of samples is OI7>OI4>O0>OI5 according to the ignition and stage average mass loss rate (RM). The reactivity of –OH may affect the reburning ability of coal more than its initial content. Soaking is beneficial to the decrease of activation energy of aliphatic groups, and the activity of –C=O- and -C-O- in acid-soaked coal molecules is stronger, so that they can take part in coal-oxygen composite reactions at low temperature.
