Densities have been measured for aqueous mixtures of diethylamine at the temperatures: (278.15, 288.15, 293.15, 298.15, and 308.15) K, for the entire composition range. The data have been used to calculate apparent molar, excess molar and excess partial molar volumes. Limiting values of excess partial molar volumes and expansions have been derived as well. The discussion has been undertaken comparing the obtained values with those of parent studies in related compounds. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
