Densities, viscosities, refractive indexes, and surface
tensions
of the ternary system (ethanol + benzyl acetate + benzyl alcohol)
at T = 303.15 K and its constituent binary systems
(ethanol + benzyl acetate, ethanol + benzyl alcohol, and benzyl acetate
+ benzyl alcohol) at T = (293.15, 303.15, 313.15,
and 323.15) K were measured under atmospheric pressure. Densities
were determined using a vibrating-tube densimeter. Viscosities were
measured with an automatic microviscometer based on the rolling-ball
principle. Refractive indexes were measured using a digital Abbe-type
refractometer. Surface tensions were determined by the Wilhelmy-plate
method. From these data, excess molar volumes, deviations in viscosity,
deviations in refractive index, and deviations in surface tension
were derived. The results for the binary and ternary systems were
fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation and the Cilbuka equation,
respectively. The excess molar volumes and deviations in viscosity
are used to study the nature of mixing behaviors between mixture components.
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.
