Excess thermodynamic properties, and for the binary systems {1,2-dichloropropane + 2-alkoxyethanols} at T = 298.15 K

This article presents the experimental data of and , obtained at T = 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure, for four binary systems composed of 1,2-dichloropropane (1,2-DCP) and four 2-alkoxyethanols. The 2-alkoxyethanols are 2-methoxyethanol (2-ME), 2-ethoxyethanol (2-EE), 2-propoxyethanol (2-PE) and 2-butoxyethanol (2-BE). The of the mixture has been shown positive for 2-ME, ‘s-shaped’ for all remaining systems, being negative at low and positive at high mole fraction of 1,2-DCP. The values for all binary mixtures are also shown both positive at low and negative at high mole fraction of 1,2-DCP. The experimental results of and were fitted to Redlich–Kister equation to correlate the composition dependence of both excess properties. In this work, data were also used to test the suitability of thermodynamic models (Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC equations) based on local-composition theory. The results have been qualitatively discussed in terms of the polarity, self-association, and hydrogen bond among molecules.
