Experimental solubilities are reported for pyrene dissolved in ternary 1-propanol + 1-butanol + heptane, 2-propanol + 1-butanol + heptane, 1-propanol + 2-butanol + heptane, and 2-propanol + 2-butanol + heptane solvent mixtures at 26°C and atmospheric pressure. Nineteen compositions were studied for each of the four solvent systems. Results of these measurements are used to test the predictive ability of the ternary solvent form of the combined NIMS/Redlich-Kister equation. Computations showed that the model predicted the observed solubility behavior to within an overall average absolute deviation of about 1.6%, which is comparable to the experimental uncertainty of (1.5%.
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.
