Measurement and correlation of vapor-liquid equilibra for cyclohexane + ethylene glycol monoisopropyl ether and cyclohexane + ethylene glycol monoisobutyl ether systems
E-mail:
Ethylene glycol monoisopropyl ether (iC3E1) and ethylene glycol monoisobutyl ether (iC4E1) are nonionic surfactants which have been attracting considerable attention due to inter and intra-molecular association, related to the presence of O and OH in the same molecule. Binary isothermal vapor + liquid equilibrium data were measured for cyclohexane + ethylene glycol monoisopropyl ether and cyclohexane + ethylene glycol monoisobutyl ether systems at four different temperatures ranging from 303.15 K to 333.15 K at 10 K intervals. A static apparatus was used in this study. Two systems show positive deviation from Raoult’s law and no azeotrope. The experimental data were correlated well with Peng-Robinson-Stryjek-Vera equation of state using Wong-Sandler mixing rule.
