Abstract

Using a high-pressure variable-volume view cell, the vapor-liquid equilibria of the binary system CO2 and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tridecafluorohexylsulfonate ([BMIM][TDfO]) were determined. The CO2 mole fraction ranged from 0.104 to 0.952 over a temperature range of 298.2-323.2 K. Both the Peng-Robinson and Soave-Redlich- Kwong equations of state were applied with two different mixing rules to correlate with the experimentally obtained results. Increasing the alkyl chain length in perfluorinated sulfonate anion mother structure from methyl to hexyl markedly increased the CO2 solubility. To investigate the effect of the number of fluorine atoms in the anion on the phase behavior of imidazolium-based ionic liquid, these experimental results were then compared with those reported in previous experimental studies of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cations-including ionic liquid+CO2 binary system.
