Density, Viscosity, and Sound Speed of Bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide-Based Ionic Liquids+1-Propanol Mixtures
The density, viscosity, and speed of sound of three mixtures formed by 1-propanol and an ionic liquid were measured in a temperature range of 278.15-338.15 K. All measurements were made at atmospheric pressure and covered the entire range of miscible compositions. The three ionic liquids have the same anion but differ in the cation: 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [emim][NTf2], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [bmim][NTf2], and 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [hmim][NTf2]. The experimental data allowed calculate the molar volume and isentropic compressibility of the mixture and their respective excess properties. Values of these excess properties were fitted to a Redlich-Kister type equation, and a set of parameters was obtained for each property.
