Abstract
A simple variable-volume method using a polytetrafluoroethylene capsule as a sample cell was applied to measure the pressure dependence of liquid density (ρ). The method was applied to 2-ethylhexyl benzoate at 313, 333, and 353K, and the reproducibility of its volume change was confirmed at pressures of up to 400 MPa. A correction term for the apparatus was also estimated. The uncertainty in the high-pressure ρ measurements was estimated to be ∼±1%. Using the developed method, the ρ values of methyl laurate at pressures of up to 400 MPa at 313 and 333K, as well as those of methyl linoleate at pressures of up to 400 MPa at 313, 333, and 353K, were measured. The results were in good agreement with the literature values in the low-pressure range. The proposed method enables the determination of the high-pressure ρ of liquids with greater ease than previously possible.
