Excess volume, changes of refractive index and surface tension of binary 1,2-ethanediol+1-propanol or 1-butanol mixtures at several temperatures

Excess molar volume, changes of refractive index, and surface tension deviations of binary mixtures of 1,2-ethanediol + 1-propanol or 1-butanol have been determined at 293.15, 298.15, 303.15, and 308.15 K. The experimental data of refractive indices and surface tensions were compared with those predicted by different empirical expressions. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
