In this work, the solubilities of adipic acid, glutaric
acid, and succinic acid in methanol + dimethyl glutarate mixtures
were measured by using the laser dynamic method under 101.3 kPa at T = 287.05 to 337.35 K. The mass fraction of methanol in
the solvent mixtures ranged from 1.0000 to 0.0000. The results showed
that the measured solubilities would increase with increasing temperature
at constant concentration, and it was also found that dimethyl glutarate
had a negative effect on the solubilities. The Apelblat model, λh model, and nonrandom two liquid (NRTL) activity
coefficient model were employed to correlate the experimental solubility
data of binary solvent mixtures, and the correlated solubility by
three models were proven to have good agreement with the experimental
solubilities. Akaike information criterion (AIC) analysis results
showed that the λh model was the most suitable
model for predicting the solubility of succinic acid, adipic acid,
and glutaric acid in the mixed solvent mixtures of dimethyl glutarate
+ methanol.
