Abstract

In this present work, a thermophysical property characterization of aqueous ternary system containing n-tris-[hydroxymethyl]methyl-3-aminopropanesulfonic acid (TAPS) and glycol was done. Thermophysical properties, including refractive index, density, and electrolytic conductivity, measurements were considered. The glycols considered are propylene glycol (PG), dipropylene glycol (DPG), and tripropylene glycol (TPG). The measurements were done over a temperature range of 298.15K to 343.15K and at normal atmospheric pressure. Different concentrations (4% to 16% by weight TAPS or 56% to 44% water, in a fixed amount of glycol – 40%) were used. The effects of temperature and compositions on the measured properties were discussed and then correlated based on the equation proposed for aqueous salt–glycol systems. Calculation results show that the applied model was satisfactory in representing the measured properties in the aqueous ternary systems containing TAPS and considered glycols.
