Volumetric and compressibility studies on tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP)-phase modifier (1-octanol, 1-decanol and isodecanol) interactions from T = (298.15 to 323.15) K
Density (rho) and speed of sound (u) of the binary mixtures of tributyl phosphate (TBP) and alcohols (1-octanol, 1-decanol and isodecanol) were measured at temperatures from T (298.15 to 323.15) K over the entire composition range and at atmosphere pressure. Using these experimentally determined quantities, the excess molar volume (V-E), deviation in isentropic compressibility (Delta kappa(s)), internal pressure (p(i)), and adjusted correlation coefficients have been calculated. The excess molar volume has been fitted to a Redlich-Kister type polynomial equation. The positive or negative deviations shown by the excess quantities and the trend shown by the adjusted correlation coefficients have been interpreted in terms of intermolecular interactions and structure of components.
