Mj. Lee et al., PVT measurements for mixtures of 1-octanol with oligomeric poly(ethylene glycol) from 298 K to 338 K and pressures up to 30 MPa, J CHEM EN D, 44(6), 1999, pp. 1379-1385
PVT properties were measured for mixtures of l-octanol with fractionation c
uts of poly(ethylene glycol)-200 or poly(ethylene glycol)-600 at temperatur
es from 298 K to 338 K and pressures up to 30 MPa. Excess volumes are posit
ive for: these two polymer solution systems. The pressure effect on the liq
uid densities was represented accurately by the Tait equation, with which t
he isothermal compressibilities were calculated. Both the Flory-Orwoll-Vrij
and the Schotte equations of state were employed to correlate the experime
ntal specific volumes. Accurate results were obtained from these two equati
ons.
