Densities and Viscosities of Five Alkyl Esters with Nitroethane Systems at (293.15, 303.15, and 313.15) K

Abstract

Densities and viscosities were measured for the five binary mixtures formed by methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, ethyl propionate, and butyl acetate with nitroethane at (293.15, 303.15, and 313.15) K and atmospheric pressure. Densities were determined using a vibrating-tube densimeter. Viscosities were measured with an automatic Ubbelohde capillary viscometer. The estimated uncertainties are ±0.1 kg cm - 3 and ±0.1% for density and viscosity, respectively. Excess volumes and viscosity deviations from the mole fraction average were derived. The kinematic viscosities were compared with McAllister's model.
