Abstract
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibrium measurements at 101.3 kPa are reported for the binary systems methylcyclohexane + 1-propanol, + 2-propanol, + 1-butanol, and + 2-butanol. The systems show a strong positive deviation from ideality and present a minimum temperature azeotrope. The activity coefficients were found to be thermodynamically consistent by the methods of Van Ness−Byer−Gibbs and Wisniak. The date were correlated with five liquid-phase activity coefficient models (Margules, Van Laar, Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC). According to the average deviations in temperature and in vapor composition the best model for the systems is NRTL.
