A model consisting of the association and Flory’s equation of state contributions (Treszczanowicz and Benson, 1985) is used to predict the temperature dependence of the excess volume A(p)(E) = (partial derivative V-E/partial derivative T)(p) in diluted regions of alkanols. The model predicts a complex shape for the A(p)(E) dependence for dilute alkanol solutions as a result of the balance between the association and free volume contributions.
