Coal tar, a viscous black liquid derived from heating coal in the absence of air, has a long and complex history that stretches back centuries. Early civilizations employed it for waterproofing and medicinal purposes. For example, ancient Egyptians used coal tar to embalm mummies, while the Chinese used it to treat skin conditions. In the 19th century, coal tar emerged as a key industrial byproduct of the burgeoning coal gas industry. It was used in a wide range of products, from roofing materials and sealants like coal tar pitch to wood preservatives and medicines. Even aspirin, a pain reliever still widely used today, was originally derived from coal tar in the late 19th century by German chemist Felix Hoffmann. Coal tar also played a role in the development of synthetic dyes, which revolutionized the textile industry in the 19th century.
