28. Kerogens are known to exhibit glass-rubber transitions (see Parks, T. J.; Lynch, L. J.; Webster, D. S.; Barrett, D. Energy Fuels 1988, 2, 185-190.). Although such transitions have been found to occur at temperatures above that of the present study, the processes used to isolate the kerogen from the mineral matrix in those studies also eliminates the smaller organic molecules. Consequently, the glass transition temperature for the organic material within the raw oil shale is likely to be systematically lower than for the isolated kerogen and the present sample is likely to contain a greater fraction of rubber-like organic component than found in isolated kerogen.
