Crystallization behavior of hexadecane (C16H34), octadecane (C18H38), eicosane (C20H42), and docosane (C22H46) dispersions of similar mean droplet diameter (x50.2 ≈ 15 µm) was investigated in quiescent systems and compared to crystallization under mechanical stress. In quiescent systems, the required supercooling decreased with increasing chain length of the alkanes to initiate crystallization. Crystallization of alkane dispersions under mechanical stress resulted in similar onset crystallization supercooling, as during quiescent crystallization. Increase of mechanical stress did not affect the onset crystallization supercooling within alkane dispersions.

Two seemingly unrelated phenomena in liquid hydrocarbons have similar trends in their dependences upon the molecular structure of the hydrocarbon. The phenomena are the annihilation half-life of triplet positronium and the radiolysis free ion yield. In n-alkanes the effect of increasing the molecular chain length, upon both phenomena, appears to be simply to increase the density of interacting sites. Branching the alkane chain decreases the strength of molecular interaction with both electrons and positronium, although the relative decrease is much greater for the former than for the latter. The effects of double bonds on the phenomena, after separating out the density effect, are different from each other.

Abstract The volume changes on mixing polyisobutylene (PIB) with n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-decane, and n-hexadecane have been determined by direct measurements at 45°, and for n-heptane at 0 and 50° as well. They are negative in every case; the magnitude of the excess volume decreases with chain length, and increases with temperature. These results on volume changes, which are beyond the scope of conventional theories of polymer solutions, are rationally taken into account by the recent statistical mechanical theory of solutions which relates properties of the mixture to characteristics of the pure liquids manifested in their equation-of-state parameters. The negative enthalpies of mixing found by Delmas, Patterson, and Somcynsky for all of these systems with the exception of PIB-n-hexadecane are similarly shown to arise from negative equation-of-state contributions to the enthalpy which reflect differences between the liquid characteristics of n-alkane and PIB. The energy contributed by interchange of neighbor species in contact is shown to be small but positive, as should be expected for the nonpolar molecules involved. It diminishes with chain length of the alkane, becoming little greater than zero in the limit of an infinite alkane chain (polymethylene). Osmotic pressures of concentrated solutions (∼ 15–50%) of PIB in n-octane at 25° yield values of the residual chemical potential, expressed in terms of the conventional parameter χ, which are well reproduced by the theory without arbitrary parameters. The partial molar enthalpy and entropy of dilution are dominated by equation-of-state contributions rendering both of them negative, despite the large positive combinatory entropy. The appearance of critical miscibility at higher temperatures is thus predicted by the theory without resort to special explanations.
