Proposal for a Viscous Test Mixture—Densities, Viscosities, and Vapor–Liquid Equilibrium Data of the Binary Mixture 2-Methyl-2-butanol + 2-Methyl-1-propanol
2016
Standardized test mixtures are needed to determine the effectiveness and efficiency of distillation columns and their internals. Despite the wide range of different test mixtures and the variations in their physical properties, no standard test mixture is available that contributes viscosities above 1.5 mPa s at typical distillation conditions. To investigate the impact of viscosity on separation effectiveness and efficiency and validate models for higher viscosities, a new test mixture is proposed. On the basis of a screening, the binary mixture 2-methyl-2-butanol/2-methyl-1-propanol was chosen, showing liquid phase viscosities up to 5 mPa s and satisfying the requirements for separation efficiency tests. For this mixture, vapor–liquid equilibria were measured from 2 to 95 kPa. A slight negative deviation from ideal behavior is accounted for using the nonrandom two-liquid model. Furthermore, for both pure substances as well as their mixtures liquid densities were determined from 293.15 to 363.15 K and vi...
