The isobaric vapor−liquid equilibrium (VLE) data of n-butyl alcohol + SBAC, isobutyl alcohol + SBAC, and tert-butyl alcohol + SBAC binary systems were determined at 101.3 kPa by using an Ellis vapor liquid equilibrium still. The experimental data passed the thermodynamic consistency test by the Herington method and showed positive deviations from ideal behavior. The VLE values were correlated by the Wilson, nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL), and universal quasichemical (UNIQUAC) activity-coefficient models with satisfactory results. The results show that n-butyl alcohol + SBAC and isobutyl alcohol + SBAC systems form minimum temperature azeotropic mixtures.
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.
