For the separation of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol in water, two alcohols and two ketones were chosen as extractants for experiments at 101.3 kPa and 298.2 K. The liquid−liquid equilibrium data for water + 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol + (4-methyl-2-pentanol, methyl isobutyl ketone, methyl isopropyl ketone, and benzyl alcohol) were measured under these conditions. The separation effects of the four solvents were assessed by the distribution coefficient (D) and the separation factor (S). Meantime, the interaction parameters were obtained by fitting the experimental data using NRTL and UNIQUAC models, and both values of AAD and rmsd were less than 0.43%. The GUI-MATLAB series of topological analysis tools were used to check the accuracy of the measured values with the binary interaction parameters.
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.
