In the present study, the combination of volumetric and acoustical studies is used to investigate the interactions of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, and tri-
In order to arbitrate
and understand the synergy between the sugar
alcohol xylitol and glycols, the volumetric and acoustical parameters
are being calculated from the experimental speed of sound and density
data at a variation of temperature from 288.18 to 318.15 K, in (0.01,
0.02, and 0.03) mol·kg–1. Volumetric parameters,
such as V
ϕ, that is, apparent molar
volume, and ΔV
ϕ
0, that is, standard partial molar volume
of transfer, in the aqueous solutions of xylitol for the glycols have
been calculated with the experimental density data. The V
ϕ
0 values
show accretion with temperature and thus imply that the solute and
solvent interaction for triethylene glycol in aqueous xylitol is more
as compared to ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol. Similarly, with
the help of the speed of sound data, the acoustical parameters such
as K
ϕ,s, that is, apparent molar
isentropic compression, and ΔK
ϕ,s
0, that
is, partial molar isentropic compression of transfer, have been computed
along with the pair and triplet interaction coefficients.
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.
