Densities and Vapor-Liquid-Equilibria in Binary-Mixtures Formed by Propyl Methanoate Plus Ethanol, Plus Propan-1-Ol, and Plus Butan-1-Ol at 160.0-kPa
Densities and excess volumes were determined at 298.15 K for propyl methanoate + ethanol, + propan-1-ol, and + butan-1-ol. The results of those quantities were then correlated to get the concentrations of vapor-liquid equilibrium obtained isobarically at 160 kPa for the same mixtures. Two mixtures show azeotropes : for propyl methanoate (1) + ethanol(2), x(1) = 0.443 at T = 358.7 K; and for propyl methanoate (1) + propan-1-ol (2), x(1) = 0.762 at T = 368.2 K. The mixtures are thermodynamically consistent, and the predictions made using several group-contribution models are satisfactory.
