Molar heat capacities of some aqueous (2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol plus glycol) systems
A new set of molar heat capacity data for aqueous {2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol (TRIS) + glycol} at (30 to 80)degrees C and different concentrations (4% to 16% by weight TRIS or 56% to 44% by weight water, in a fixed amount of glycol - 40% by weight) were gathered via reliable measurement method and are presented in this report. The glycols considered were diethylene glycol (DEG), triethylene glycol (TEG), tetraethylene glycol (T(4)EG), propylene glycol (PG), dipropylene glycol (DPG), and tripropylene glycol (TPG). The 198 data points gathered fit the equation, C-p = C-p,C-a + B(1)m + B(2)m(2) + B(3)m(3), where C-p and C-p,C-a are the molar heat capacities of the (TRIS + glycol + water) and (water + glycol) systems, respectively, B-i the temperature-dependent parameters, and m the mole TRIS per kilogram (glycol + water). The overall average absolute deviation (AAD) of the experimental data from the corresponding values calculated from the correlation equation was 0.07%. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
