Thermophysical Properties of Three Compounds from the Acrylate Family
Several thermophysical properties of three chemicals from the acrylate family (methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, and butyl acrylate) have been measured over a wide range of temperatures, from T = 278.15 K to T = 338.15 K with a temperature step of 2.5 K. The studied properties were: density, refractive index, speed of sound, surface tension, viscosity, vapor pressure, and static permittivity. From the experimental results, isentropic compressibilities, molar refractions and enthalpies of surface formation have been determined. Moreover, a comparative study has been carried out, and information regarding molecular interactions and structures has been obtained.
