The liquid–liquid equilibrium
for the mixtures of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with mass-average
molar of 4000, 6000, or 10 000 g mol–1 +
sodium hydrogen sulfite (NaHSO3) + water systems has been
determined experimentally at T = 288.15, 298.15,
308.15, and 318.15 K. The temperature, PEG mass molar, mixture composition,
and nature of anion effects on phase equilibrium were studied. The
binodal curves at different temperatures were fitted to an empirical
equation that correlates the concentrations of polymers and salt.
The consistence of experimental data of equilibrium was available
through of the Othmer–Tobias and Bancroft equations, and the
parameters were reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
