The Mutual Solubilization of n-Decanol and n-Octane in Aqueous Sodium Octanoate Solutions.

Solubilization of Decane into the Ternary System TDMAO/1-Hexanol/Water

“…The phase behavior was determined at six different temperatures (15, 20,25,35, 45, and 60 °C) with special emphasis on the regions where one-phase systems could be obtained.…”

Phase equilibriums, self-assembly and interactions in two-, three- and four medium-chain length component systems

“…. Three more triangles are inter-connected when octane (O) is added to the system [60,61]. The conclusion drawn is the same as made previously.…”

“…The maximum solubilization of water at x(C 8 NH 2 ) = 0.6 occurs at n(C 8 NH 2 )/ n(C 8 NH 3 Cl) = s = 1.5 (right surfactant mixture diagram). [60,61]. No phase diagrams of the sodium octanoate -decanol -octane is available due to non-miscibility.…”

“…Only when all water is consumed in hydration of sodium, carboxylate and decanol the solubility of octane is extensive. Within the aqueous phase, the slope of the lines (d[n(C 8 )]/d[n(C 10 OH)]) in the diagram to the right varies from 0.48 at m(NaC 8 O 2 ) =1.51 mol/kg to 0.81 at m(NaC 8 O 2 ) =3.85 mol/kg [61]. The nearly common cuts in both liquid phases are identified with bolder lines in the lower-right diagram.…”
