The surface tension of saturated dimethyl carbonate has been measured with a differential capillary rise method (DCRM). Thirty-one experimental data points have been obtained in the temperature range from 282 to 371 K. The uncertainties of temperature are less than +/-10mK (ITS-90). The uncertainties of surface tension measurements were estimated to be less than +/-0.2 mN m(-1). The results were correlated as a function of temperature, and the average absolute deviation is 0.027 mN m(-1). (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
