The vapor pressures of pure 2-methylpentanedioic acid
dimethyl
ester (2-MADE) and dimethyl adipate (DMA) at corresponding temperatures
were measured by a rose-type vapor–liquid equilibrium still
and compared
with those in the literature. The isobaric vapor–liquid phase
equilibrium (VLE) of binary mixtures of 2-MADE and DMA at 101.3, 50.0,
30.0, and 10.0 kPa were measured in the same still. It is verified
by the Fredenslund test and the Van Ness test that all data are consistent
with thermodynamics. NRTL, UNIQUAC, and Wilson models were used to
regress the experimental data, and the deviation between the experimental
data and the model was small. These models are suitable for the binary
mixed system.
