Excess molar volume along with viscosity,refractive index and relative permittivity for binary mixtures of exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene with four octane isomers

The fundamental physical properties including density, viscosity, refractive index and relative permittivity, have been measured for binary mixtures of exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (JP-10) with four octane isomers (n-octane, 3-methylheptane, 2,4-dimethylhexane and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane) over the whole composition range at temperatures T = (293.15 to 313.15) K and pressure p = 0.1 MPa. The values of excess molar volume $\left(V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}\right)$, viscosity deviation (Δη), refractive index deviation (Δn_D) and relative permittivity deviation (Δε_r) are then calculated. All of the values of $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ and Δη are observed to be negative, while those of Δn_D and Δε_r are close to zero. The effects of temperature and composition on the variation of $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ values are discussed. The negative values of $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ and Δη are conductive to high-density and low-resistance of fuels, which is favorable for the design and preparation of advanced hydrocarbon fuels.     

Volumetric and viscometric properties of binary mixtures of {methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) + alcohol} at several temperatures and p = 0.1 MPa: Experimental results and application of the ERAS model

Densities and viscosities of binary mixtures of {methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) + methanol, or +ethanol, or +1-propanol, or +2-propanol, or +1-butanol, or +1-pentanol, or +1-hexanol} have been determined as a function of composition at several temperatures and atmospheric pressure. The temperatures studied were (293.15, 298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K. The experimental results have been used to calculate the excess molar volume $(V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}})$ and viscosity deviation (Δη). Both $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ and Δη values were negative over the entire range of mole fraction for all temperatures and systems studied. Moreover, the $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ values have been used to test the applicability of the Extended Real Associated Solution (ERAS) model.     

Volumetric properties of binary liquid mixtures: Application of the Prigogine–Flory–Patterson theory to excess molar volumes of dichloromethane with benzene or toluene

The values of the density were measured for binary liquid mixtures of benzene and toluene with dichloromethane over entire range of concentration using a vibrating-tube densimeter at T = (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, and 303.15) K and atmospheric pressure. The excess molar volumes, calculated from the density results, are positive for the systems of dichloromethane with benzene over the whole concentration range and present an approximate sigmoid curve for the dichloromethane with toluene. The $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ values have been fitted to the Redlich–Kister polynomial equation, and other volumetric properties such as the partial molar volumes, $\overline{V_i}$, the apparent molar volume, V_?i, and the partial molar excess volumes at infinite dilution, $(\overline{V_i^{\text{E}}}{)}^{\infty }$, were calculated over the whole composition range. The Prigogine–Flory–Patterson (PFP) theory and its applicability in predicting $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ at T = 298.15 K are tested. Good agreement was found for the mixtures dichloromethane with benzene. For the mixtures dichloromethane with toluene, which shows an approximate S-shaped $V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}}$ behaviour, the correlation fails.
