The present study aimed to evaluate the hydrocarbon functional groups, aromaticity degree, and depositional environment in the Silurian�Devonian Kroh black shales of western peninsular Malaysia. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was applied to measure the hydrocarbon functional groups...
