Abstract: | The Flory expression for the Gibbs free energy of mixing of a binary mixture is improved by introducing a hard-sphere form for the entropy of mixing. The resulting expression is used to describe the characteristic features of organic mixtures of globular molecules with size mismatch. In particular, we show that the above model, with an interchange energy depending on temperature, accounts for the thermodynamic properties and concentration fluctuations of a number of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane-based mixtures. |
