GB/T 15588-2013 is the English-translated version of 烟煤显微组分分类.
GB/T 15588-2013 is the Chinese national standard on classification of macerals for bituminous coal, in the field of mining and minerals. The /T suffix marks it as a recommended standard: it is not compulsory by itself, but it becomes binding as soon as a contract, a tender or a customer specification calls it up - which in practice is how most foreign buyers meet it. It was issued on 17 December 2013 by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China; Standardization Administration of China, and has been in force since 1 May 2014. Classification: ICS 73.040, CCS D20. This page is published from the official record of the standard held by the Chinese standards administration: the identification, the dates, the classification and the issuing body are taken from there. The clause text, the tables and the numeric limits are in the document itself, which is delivered complete in English translation.

Foreword
This standard was drafted in accordance with GB/T 1.1-2009 given rules. This standard replaces GB/T 15588-2001 "bituminous coal MACERALS classification." Compared with GB/T 15588-2001, the main changes as follows:
--- The "macrinite" into "macrinite 1" and "2 macrinite" two sub-microscopic components. The standard proposed by China Coal Industry Association. This standard coal by the National Standardization Technical Committee (SAC/TC42) centralized. This standard was drafted. Coal Science and Industry Group, Xi'an Institute. The main drafters of this standard. Qun, Xiao Wen Zhao, Pei Yuan, Douting Huan, Luojun Wen. This standard replaces the standards previously issued as follows:
--- GB/T 15588-1995, GB/T 15588-2001. Bituminous coal classification MACERALS

3 Classification principles
Cause and technological properties using the principle of combining a microscope under oil immersion reflected light characteristics, combined with transmitted light and fluorescence characteristics into Classify. First, according to the color of the reflected power coal organic components, projections, morphological, structural characteristics, divided microstructure grouping; then according to the cell structure Differences in the degree of preservation, shape, size and optical characteristics of the microstructure group is further divided into sub-microscopic components and micro components.
