The chemical structure of Maoming oil shale kerogen is studied by ruthenium tetroxide (RuO4 ) oxidation. Oxidation results suggest that Maoming oil shale kerogen is of a three-dimensional-network structure with relatively short aliphatic chains as cross-linking bridges, and heteroatoms and aromatic rings are the points of attachment in the network structure.
