Liquid–liquid
equilibrium (LLE) data for the ternary system
composed of diethyl carbonate (DEC) + 1-propanol + water were measured
under atmospheric pressure (101.32 ± 1 kPa) at temperature range
of 303.15–333.15 K. The equilibrium data were found to be consistent
with the Bachman–Brown method. The data were further correlated
with the nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) and the universal quasi-chemical
(UNIQUAC) models, and 0.37% root-mean-square deviation was obtained
between the experimental and calculated phase composition. Distribution
coefficient and separation factor for this ternary system were calculated
from the experimental data.
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.
