Isobaric Vapor-Liquid-Equilibria of Octane Plus 1-Butanol, Plus 2-Butanol, and Plus 2-Methyl-2-Propanol at 101.3 kPa
Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibria were measured for three binary systems of 1-butanol + octane, 2-butanol + octane, and 2-methyl-2-propanol + octane at 101.3 kPa. The measurements were made in an equilibrium still with circulation of both the vapor and liquid phases. Both 1-butanol + octane and 2-butanol + octane form a minimum boiling azeotrope. 2-Methyl-2-propanol + octane is a nonazeotrope. The activity coefficients of three binary systems were best correlated with the Wilson equation.
