The statistical associating fluid theory with variable range (SAFT-VR) is a robust equation of state (EOS) with six parameters that describe the thermodynamics of complex systems. Earlier works with this EOS have already predicted the phase co-existence properties of various refrigerants and higher order alkane series compounds, along with their mixtures. In this work, the SAFT-VR EOS has been used to correlate the P–V–T properties of three polyols, namely Pluracol 355, Pluracol 975, and Terol 352. The solubility of nine, zero ozone-depleting blowing agents in these three polyols has been correlated wherever the experimental data are available, and the solubility curves have been produced. The solubility results obtain from SAFT-VR EOS have been compared to a lattice theory based EOS known as Sanchez–Lacombe (SL). In addition, the solubility results of some blowing agents are predicted using the SAFT-VR EOS and the SL EOS, in the above-mentioned polyols wherever there is no experimental data. In general, the SL EOS predicts the solubility of the blowing agents in the polyols more accurately than the SAFT-VR EOS.
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.
