Tar

For other uses, see Tar (disambiguation).
One can produce a tar-like substance from corn stalks by heating them in a microwave oven. This process is known as pyrolysis.

Tar is a dark brown or black viscous liquid of hydrocarbons and free carbon, obtained from a wide variety of organic materials through destructive distillation. Tar can be produced from coal, wood, petroleum, or peat.[1]

Mineral products resembling tar can be produced from fossil hydrocarbons, such as petroleum. Coal tar is produced from coal as a byproduct of coke production.
