Abstract
- Abstract: The densities and viscosities of mixtures of a hydrocarbon fuel (JP-10) with methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) or ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) were determined at different temperatures (293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15 and 313.15)K, over the entire composition range. Excess molar volumes, viscosity deviation and excess Gibbs energies of activation of mixtures were calculated and fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation. The excess molar volumes are negative over the entire range of composition. The viscosity data have been correlated with several semi-empirical equations. The thermodynamic functions of activation were also calculated. The refractive indices of the systems were also measured for temperatures of (293.15, 303.15 and 313.15)K. The results provide important information on the research and application of JP-10 and fuel ethers as additives. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
