Abstract

The densities of ethylene glycol solutions of tetrahydrofuran (THF) with 0–20 mol % THF were measured at 20–60°C and atmospheric pressure to an accuracy of 5 × 10−5 g/cm3. The apparent molar volumes of THF in the solutions were calculated and their concentration and temperature dependences determined. The results were compared with the apparent molar volumes of THF in aqueous systems calculated from the literature data. Minima were found on the concentration dependence of the apparent volume of THF for both aqueous and ethylene glycol solutions and changed differently as the temperature increased. The data obtained were discussed from the standpoint of solvophobic effects in aqueous and ethylene glycol solutions of THF.
