VISCOSITY OF TERNARY LIQUID-MIXTURES

Viscosities of ternary liquid mixtures containing benzene + cyclohexan e + carbon tetrachloride and the three possible binary combinations we re measured at 25 degrees C, and the excess viscosities were computed. Theoretical expressions for viscosity were developed on the basis of the Flory theory, the significant structure theory and a theory based on a method of estimating the properties of multi-component systems fr om those of binary systems. Reasonable agreement between experimental and theoretical viscosities is found.
