Abstract

The solubility of boscalid in five pure solvents, including methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, ethyl acetate and n-propyl acetate, and two binary solvent mixtures, including (ethanol+ethyl acetate) and (isopropanol+ethyl acetate), was determined by a gravimetric method with temperatures ranging from (288.15 to 313.15) K. It turns out that the solubility of boscalid increases with the increasing of temperature in all selected solvents. Moreover, it is interesting that the solubility of boscalid in the two binary solvent mixtures performed a maximum effect with the decreasing mole fraction of ethyl acetate at a given temperature. The solubility of boscalid in pure solvents was correlated by the modified Apelblat model and λh model while that in binary solvent mixtures was correlated by the modified Apelblat model, CNIBS/R-K model and Jouyban-Acree model. It is found that all the models could give satisfactory correlation results with less than 3% of all the ARD values. Furthermore, the thermodynamic properties of the mixing processes in all solvents selected were calculated and discussed based on the NRTL model.
