Abstract

The excess molar volume, viscosity deviation and excess Gibbs free energy of activation of viscous flow have been investigated from the density and shear viscosity measurements of water–dioxane mixtures over the entire range of mole fractions from 293.15 to 309.15 K. The results were fitted by the Redlich–Kister equation. Partial molar volume and Gibbs energy at infinite dilution were deduced from four methods, activation parameters and partial molar Gibbs energy of activation of viscous flow against compositions were investigated. The water–dioxane interactions have principally an H-bound character and there are two principal types’ structures limited by 0.08 mole fraction in dioxane. The reduced Redlich–Kister excess properties provide an indication of the intermolecular interactions and for dioxane–water cluster formation as suggested in the literature.
