Thermodynamic properties of binary mixtures containing thiaalkanes. II. Thermal pressure coefficients of pure compounds at 298.15 K
Keyword(s):
An apparatus for the measurement of thermal pressure coefficients of pure compounds is described. The thermal pressure coefficient β of n-thiaalkanes R2S (R = CH3, C2H5, n-C3H7, n-C4H9, n-C7H15) and of dithiaalkanes R2S2 (R = CH3, C2H5, iso-C3H7) were measured at 298.15 K and at zero pressure. These experimental results in conjunction with data from literature for other compounds are compared using the reduced parameter of pressure P* proposed by Flory. The P* do not have regular values for the lower members of thiaalkanes series. One explanation of these irregularities is the different size of the molecules.
