Experimental and predicted viscosities of the binary system (n-hexane+1,3-dioxolane) and for the ternary system (n-hexane+1,3-dioxolane+1-butanol) at298.15 and 313.15 K

Viscosities of the ternary system n-hexane + 1,3-dioxolane + 1-butanol and the binary system n-hexane + 1,3-dioxolane have been measured at atmospheri c pressure at 298.15 and 313.15 K. Viscosity deviations for the binary and ternary systems were calculated from experimental data and fitted to Redlic h-Kister and Cibulka equations, respectively. The group contribution method proposed by Wu has been used to predict the viscosity of all mixtures. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
