phase transition fracturing(LCPTF) technology is a novel water-free fracturing technique that can enhance coalbed methane recovery. To study the changes in coal adsorption characteristics before and after CO
2
phase transition fracturing
the No. 3 coal seam from the Yuwu coal mine was selected for experimentation. High-pressure mercury intrusion
isothermal adsorption tests were conducted to analyze the impact of liquid CO

phase transition fracturing on coal adsorption. The result
s showed that after liquid CO
2
phase transition fracturing
the pore volume and specific surface area of adsorption pores in coal decreased; the specific surface area of seepage pores decreased while the pore volume of seepage pores increased. The liquid CO

phase transition fracturing technique could influence the change in the Langmuir adsorption constant of coal by altering the pore structure. After liquid CO
2
phase transition fracturing
the Langmuir adsorption constant “
a
” value decreased and the “
b
” value increased
indicating that the fracturing process reduced the coal’s adsorption capacity and enhanced the desorption rate. This study provides theoretical guidance for the improvement and optimization of liquid CO
