A thermodynamic description of the distribution of water in H2O-tributyl phosphate and H2O-tributyl phosphate-solvent systems

Various methods for describing the distribution of water in the H2O-tributyl phosphate (TBP) system were considered. An equation for describing the deviations from the Henry law was proposed. A three-parameter equation for calculating the distribution of water in H2O-TBP-solvent systems was derived. It is based on the additive solubility model and allows for the dependence of the activity coefficients on the TBP concentration. Based on the published data, the parameters of the equation for a number of systems were calculated.
