Using 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate as an Entrainer for the Extractive Distillation of Ethanol + Water Mixtures
2009
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria (VLE) for the ethanol + water + [emim][triflate] ternary system have been obtained at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. The ethanol + water binary system was also obtained. Furthermore, data were simulated with the Mock’s electrolyte nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) model, using the solvent−solvent interaction parameters obtained from VLE data of the ethanol + water system and taking the solvent−ionic liquid (IL) interaction parameters for the other binary systems from previous works. The agreement between experimental and calculated data is very good, showing the predictive capacity of the model. The addition of [emim][triflate] produces the disappearance of …
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for 1-Propanol + Water + 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate at 100 kPa
2008
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for the binary systems 1-propanol + water, 1-propanol + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][triflate]), and water + [emim][triflate] as well as the vapor−liquid equilibria for the 1-propanol + water + [emim][triflate] ternary system have been obtained at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. Electrolyte NRTL fitting parameters for the 1-propanol + water and water + [emim][triflate] systems were calculated. The measured ternary data were correlated using Mock’s electrolyte NRTL model which reproduces reasonably well the experimental values. The results show that the addition of [emim][triflate] to 1-propanol + water produced an import…
Phase equilibria and variation of the azeotropic composition with pressure for binary mixtures of 1-propanol + chlorobenzene and 1-butanol + chlorobe…
1998
Abstract Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibria were obtained for the systems 1-propanol + chlorobenzene and 1-butanol + chlorobenzene at 200 and 300 kPa using a dynamic still. The mole fraction of the alcohol in the azeotropic point increases with pressure and for the 1-propanol + chlorobenzene system at 300 kPa, the azeotrope has disappeared. The two systems satisfy the point-to-point thermodynamic consistency test. Both systems show a positive deviation from ideality. The data were well correlated with the Margules, van Laar, Wilson. NRTL and UNIQUAC equations.
Vapor–liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures of chlorobenzene with 3-methyl-1-butanol, 3-methyl-2-butanol and 2-methyl-2-butanol, at 100 kPa
1998
Abstract Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria have been obtained for the systems 3-methyl-1-butanol+chlorobenzene, 3-methyl-2-butanol+chlorobenzene and 2-methyl-2-butanol+chlorobenzene at 100 kPa, using a dynamic still. The experimental error in temperature is ±0.1 K, in pressure ±0.1 kPa, and in the liquid and vapor mole fraction ±0.001. The three systems satisfy the point-to-point thermodynamic consistency test. All the systems show positive deviations from ideality. The data have been correlated with the Margules, Van Laar, Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC equations.
Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures of 1-propanol + chlorobenzene and 2-propanol + chlorobenzene
1997
Abstract Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibria were obtained for the system 1-propanol + chlorobenzene at 20 and 100 kPa and for the system 2-propanol + chlorobenzene at 100 kPa using a dynamic still. The experimental error in temperature was ±0.1 K, in pressure ±0.01 kPa and ±0.1 kPa for the experiments carried out at 20 and 100 kPa, respectively, and in the liquid and vapor mole fraction 0.001. The two systems satisfy the point-to-point thermodynamic consistency test. Both systems show a positive deviation from ideality. The data were well correlated with the Margules, Van Laar, Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC equations.

Treatment of Herráez equation correlating viscosity in binary liquid mixtures exhibiting strictly monotonous distribution
2013
Recently, Herraez et al. proposed a new correlation equation, which introduces a correcting polynomial as an exponential-acting upon the molar fraction of one of mixture components. This equation is found to be widely applicable with more reasonable accuracy in systems exhibiting monotonous distribution than those presenting an extremum. In previous works, we have found that the first adjustable parameter of this equation is a universal exponent (0.5 or 1) for dioxane–water and isobutyric acid–water mixtures characterising the presence of solute–solute or solute–solvent interaction at very high dilution. In this work, we have tested this equation in 48 systems, and we have noted that severa…
Coil-Globule Collapse of Polystyrene Chains in Tetrahydrofuran-Water Mixtures.
2018
We study the coil and globule states of a single polymer chain in solution by performing molecular dynamics simulations with a united atom model. Specifically, we characterize the structural properties of atactic polystyrene chains with N = 20–150 monomers in tetrahydrofuran–water mixtures at varying mixing ratios. We find that the hydrophobic polymers form rather open coils when the mole fraction of water, XW, is roughly below 0.25, whereas the chains collapse into globules when XW ≳ 0.75. We confirm the theoretically expected scaling laws for the radius of gyration, Rg, in these regimes, i.e., Rg ∝ N3/5 and Rg ∝ N1/3 for good and poor solvent conditions, respectively. For poor solvent con…
Kinetics of Complex Formation between DNA and Cationically Charged Cylindrical Brush Polymers Observed by Stopped Flow Light Scattering
2009
The complex formation of pUC19 DNA and a cylindrical brush polymer with quaternized poly(vinyl pyridinium) side chains is investigated by stopped flow light scattering (LS). In highly dilute solutions up to two kinetic processes are observable, depending on the mole fraction of anionic charges, x(anion) . For x(anion) 0.4-0.5 only one kinetic process was identified leading to the largest complexes at x(anion) = 0.4 well below charge stoichiometry. For 0.2 < x(anion) < 0.4 two kinetic growth processes were identified: The initially formed complexes on the time scale of a few hundred milliseconds keep growing by an unusual fractal growth process until after several minutes they become stab…
Densities and viscosities of imidazolium and pyridinium chloroaluminate ionic liquids
2013
Abstract The chloroaluminate ionic liquids are used in various types of reactions. However, due to their particular vulnerability on water, their physical properties have not been previously investigated very extensively. The densities and viscosities of series imidazolium and pyridinium chloroaluminate ionic liquids having alkyl (butyl, hexyl, octyl) or aralkyl (benzyl, ethylphenyl) chain at the cation, various effective molar fraction of AlCl 3 (χ AlCl3 = 0.5, 0.65, 0.7), as well as they mixture and mixture with common organic solvents (hexane, toluene) were measured at the temperature range 293.15–343.15 K (20–70 °C). Densities, and particularly viscosities decrease with the increase of…
