Liquid–liquid equilibria and thermo physical properties for 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone + heterocyclic nitrogen compounds + hexadecane systems at 298.15 K

Abstract

Liquid–liquid equilibrium data for {1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP)+heterocyclic nitrogen compounds+hexadecane} systems were analytically determined at 298.15K and atmospheric pressure using stirred and thermo-regulated cell. The experimental data were modeled with the NRTL and UNIQUAC equations. Besides, the Bachman–Brown correlation was used to ascertain the reliability of the experimental data. Additionally, excess molar volumes (VE) and deviations in the molar refractivity (ΔR) data at 298.15K were determined for the {NMP+heterocyclic nitrogen compounds} binary systems using a digital vibrating-tube densimeter and a precision digital refractometer. The VE and ΔR data were modeled with the Redlich–Kister equation.
