In this work, the
equilibrium solubility of buprofezin in different
pure solvents was determined. The mole solubility of buprofezin in
these studied pure solvents increased with increasing temperature.
The solubility data decreased according to the following order: toluene
> ethyl acetate > DMF > acetone > 1-octanol > 1-butanol
> n-propanol > acetonitrile > isopropanol
> ethanol > methanol
> water. The results were correlated with four thermodynamic models
(the modified Apelblat equation, λh equation,
NRTL model, and Wilson model), and the values of root-mean-square
deviation (RMSD) and relative average deviation (RAD) are no more
than 27.26 × 10–4 and 2.76%, respectively.
Due to the maximum values of RAD and RMSD were 1.58% and 3.77 ×
10–4 in modified Apelblat equation, which indicate
that it is a suitable model to describe the results. Besides, the
mixing Gibbs energy, mixing enthalpy, and mixing entropy were computed.
The values of Δmix
G are negative
in this experiment; therefore, the dissolution process is a spontaneous
and favorable process, and the Δmix
S are all positive, which indicate the dissolving process is entropy
favorable as well.
