Isobaric Vapor-Liquid Equilibria for Two Binary Systems {Propylene Glycol Methyl Ether Acetate plus Methanol} and {Propylene Glycol Methyl Ether Acetate plus N,N-Dimethylformamide} at p=30.0, 50.0, and 70.0 kPa
The isobaric vapor liquid equilibria (VLE) data for two binary systems of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA) + N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA) + methanol (MeOH) at 30.0, 50.0, and 70.0 kPa were measured by utilizing a modified Rose-Williams still type apparatus which could be able to quickly form the dual cycle of continuous vapor and liquid phase in this work. On the basis of Herington area test and Van Ness point test, the thermodynamic consistency of the experiment data was verified. Meanwhile, VLE data that we obtained were correlated with nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) and Margules activity coefficient models. The results demonstrated that the calculated values were in good conformity with the experimental data in this study. In addition, azeotropic behavior was observed in the binary system of PMA and DMF at reduced pressures.
