Abstract

The properties of binary liquid mixtures containing benzyl alcohol and different types of alcohols as cosolvents (1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-propanediol and phenyl alcohol) are studied by means of molecular modelling tools. The nature, extension, structuring and dynamics of hydrogen bonding were analyzed as a function of mixtures composition in the full range. Interactions between like and unlike molecules were characterized inferring the nanoscopic behavior of the mixed fluids. Deviations of ideality were analyzed in terms of hydrogen bonding characteristics. The reported nanoscopic results allow to infer the effects of alcohol molecular level features, hydrogen bonding and its relationship with the macroscopic behavior of the studied mixed fluids.
