Abstract
Experimental densities (ρ), viscosities (η), and speeds of sound (u) of the binary mixtures of n-dodecane with an alkan-1-ol (hexan-1-ol, heptan-1-ol, octan-1-ol) or an alkan-2-ol (hexan-2-ol, heptan-2-ol and octan-2-ol) were measured over the whole mixture composition range at T = 298.15 K. From these data, the excess molar volume (\( V_{\text{m}}^{\text{E}} \)), deviations in viscosity (Δη), and excess isentropic compressibility (\( \kappa_{S}^{\text{E}} \)) have been calculated. The results were fitted by means of the Redlich–Kister equation, in order to estimate the binary coefficients and standard errors. Differences among these binary systems are ascribed to the different association abilities of the alkan-1-ols and alkan-2-ols. Experimental data on the constituted binaries were analyzed using McAllister’s multi-body interaction model, the Jouyban–Acree model, the Prigogine–Flory–Patterson theory, and the Bloomfield and Dewan model. The experimental and calculated quantities are used to study the nature of mixing behavior among the mixtures.
