Density and Viscosity of the Binary Systems Ethanol + Butan-1-ol, + Pentan-1-ol, + Heptan-1-ol, + Octan-1-ol, Nonan-1-ol, + Decan-1-ol at 0.1 MPa and Temperatures from 283.15 K to 313.15 K.

This article presents experimental viscosity and density data for binary systems containing ethanol and one of the following 1-alkanols as the second component: butan-l-ol, pentan-l-ol, heptan-l-ol, octan-l-ol, nonan-l-ol, and decan-l-ol. These properties were measured at 0.1 MPa and at five different temperatures, ranging from 283.15 K to 313.15 K. The viscosity data have also been correlated by a model which combines Eyring's theory of viscous flow with a thermodynamic framework (Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 2000, 39, 849). The model binary interaction parameters, for each of the binary systems, are also reported. The agreement between calculated and experimental data was rather good. The overall mean relative standard deviations did not exceed 0.01. The experimental viscosity deviations, obtained by the difference between the viscosity of the mixture and the mole fraction average of the pure component viscosities, were adjusted by means of Redlich-Kister polynomials. For all the systems studied negative values of viscosity deviations were obtained, for all temperatures, and over the whole mole fraction range.
