Applying the previous correlation for the saturated liquid density of metals, we have developed a corresponding-states correlation for the prediction of their compressed liquid densities. The correlation needs the values of the melting and boiling point parameters of metals plus an adjustable parameter, used to predict the saturated liquid densities. In this work, we have shown that by employing the Tait equation together with the previous correlation, for saturated liquid densities, it is possible to develop an accurate method for the prediction of the compressed liquid density of metals. The agreement of the predicted density values with the experimental ones for alkali metals, mercury, bismuth, tin, and lead over a wide range of temperatures, from melting point up to several hundred degrees above the boiling point, and pressures ranging from the vapor pressure up to 4000 bar, is quite good. From 821 data points examined for the aforementioned metals the average absolute deviation for the calculated densities compared with experiment is 0.72%. The correlation is also examined against a number of existing regularities for the liquid phase. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
