The
physicochemical properties such as density, viscosity, and
refractive index of aqueous solutions of sodium l-prolinate
(SP) as a solvent for CO2 capture was measured. These properties
were measured at different temperatures from (298.15 to 343.15) K.
The mass fractions of SP were 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, and 0.40. The
coefficient of thermal expansion was calculated from the experimental
density values in the same temperature range. The analysis of experimental
results shows that the densities, viscosities, and refractive indices
of the aqueous solutions of SP increase with an increase in the mass
fraction in the solution, and decrease with increasing temperature.
The thermal expansion coefficient slightly increases with increasing
temperature and concentration. The experimental data of density, viscosity,
and refractive index were correlated by the least-squares method as
a function of temperature. The predicted data were estimated from
correlation coefficients for all measured properties and reported
with standard deviations.
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.
