Thermophysical Properties of Mixtures of Titanium(IV) Isopropoxide (TTIP) and 2-Propanol (iPOH)
The present work provides thermophysical data on binary mixtures of titanium(IV) isopropoxide (TTIP) and 2-propanol (iPOH), which are important precursor solutions in spray flame synthesis of nanoparticles. The specific density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, and molar isobaric heat capacity were measured at 101.3 kPa and temperatures ranging from 293.15 to 333.15 K. The vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) was measured at pressures ranging from 20 to 80 kPa. Furthermore, self-diffusion coefficients of pure iPOH were measured at 101.3 kPa and temperatures ranging from 293.15 to 333.15 K. A qualitative study using H-1 NMR spectroscopy provides evidence for a cross-association between TTIP and iPOH in the mixture. Correlations for all studied thermophysical properties are provided. The results establish a rational basis for the design of spray flame synthesis processes.
