THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF THE FORMATION OF C-8 ISOMERS IN THE ALKYLATION OF ISOBUTANE BY OLEFINS
The process and results of a thermodynamic analysis of C-8 isomer formation upon the alkylation of isobutene by olefins using thermobaric dependence and an information model are presented. The experimental data were used to determine the probability of reaction in the 1-3 MPa pressure range. No significant change in the Gibbs energy was found to occur at pressures above 1 MPa.
