Abstract

The critical properties of hydrocarbon mixtures, perfluorocarbon + hydrocarbon, perfluoromethylcyclohexane + siloxane, acetone + hydrocarbon and polydimethyl siloxane mixtures have been calculated from an equation of state for hard convex bodies and from Guggenheim's equation of state for hard spheres. In general, the results of both equations agree well with experimental data. It appears, however, that taking shape factors into account (by using the hard convex body equation) does not lead to a significant improvement in the agreement between theory and experiment for the critical properties.
