Density, viscosity, and saturated vapour pressure of 3-chloro-4-fluoronitrobenzene and 3-chloro-2-fluoronitrobenzene

Density and viscosity data of pure 3-chloro-4-fluoronitrobenzene and 3-chloro-2-fluoronitrobenzene were obtained in temperature range from 318.15 K to 348.15 K at the local atmospheric pressure of 99.7 kPa. The value of corresponding saturated vapour pressure of two isomers were determined in the temperature range of 409 K to 517 K. The relationship between temperature and density can be well correlated by the linear equation. The viscosity data was well described by the Litovitz, Ghatee, VFT, and Andrade equations, and the calculated value by the VFT equation is consistent with the measured data. Both the Antoine and Riedel equations can accurately describe the relationship between saturated vapour pressure and temperature of 3-chloro-4-fluoronitrobenzene and 3-chloro-2-fluoronitrobenzene, which can meet the requirements for chemical design. In addition, the thermal expansion coefficient was determined based on the density data, and the molar vaporisation enthalpy of two isomers was evaluated using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation.

Automated summary

This study obtained the density, viscosity, and saturated vapor pressure data of pure 3-chloro-4-fluoronitrobenzene and 3-chloro-2-fluoronitrobenzene under specific temperature and pressure conditions. The experimental results show that there is a linear relationship between temperature and density, viscosity data can be described by multiple equations, and the relationship between saturated vapor pressure and temperature can be accurately described by two equations.
