Thermodynamic and transport properties of ternary mixture (ethyl oleate plus n-hexadecane+1-butanol) and its binary constituents (ethyl oleate+1-butanol and ethyl oleate plus n-hexadecane) at different temperatures and atmospheric pressure

Densities, viscosities, speeds of sound and refractive indices have beenmeasured for the ternary systemethyl oleate+ n-hexadecane+1-butanol, and for the corresponding binaries ethyl oleate+1-butanol and ethyl oleate+ n-hexadecane, in the temperature range fromT=(293.15 to 343.15) K and at atmospheric pressure. Experimental data were employed to calculate some derived thermodynamic parameters, i.e. excess molar volumes (V-E), viscosity deviations (Delta eta.) and deviations in refractive index (.nD). Additionally, molar excess Gibbs free energies of activation of viscous flow (Delta G*(E)) and deviations in isentropic compressibility (Delta kappa(s)) were calculated. A graphical representation of excess molar volumes and refractive indices show positive deviation from ideal behavior for both binary systems whereas deviation in viscosity shows negative nature for the ethyl oleate + n-hexadecane system and an inversion sign for ethyl oleate +1-butanol binary system. A negative deviation in isentropic compressibility was confirmed for the systems ethyl oleate +1-butanol while positive deviation was observed in ethyl oleate + n-hexadecane system. It can be concluded that dispersive forces predominate between the components in binary systems and the observed behavior seems to suggest that the properties obtained for the ternary mixture are dominated by the binary effects. The viscosities of the binary systems were modeled by UNIFAC-VISCO, ASOG-VISCO, Teja-Rice and McAllister models. The results showed that McAllister's multibodymodel is suitable to describe viscosities for binary systemswithmaximumpercentage deviations less than 0.5%. (c) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
