Volumetric and Viscometric Behavior of Binary Systems 2-Butanol + PEG 200, + PEG 400, + Tetraethylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether, and plus N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone

Abstract

Experimental data on densities, viscosities, and refractive indices of binary mixtures with 2-butanol and polyethylene glycols of different molecular weights, tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether, or N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, were determined in the temperature interval from 288.15 K to 323.15 K and at atmospheric pressure. Excess molar volumes, viscosity deviations, and deviations in refractive indices were computed from these data and correlated with the Redlich-Kister polynomial equation. The obtained results allowed the interpretation of specific inter- and intramolecular interactions.
