Phase behavior measurement for the ethylene glycol dimethacrylate in supercritical carbon dioxide at temperatures between (313.2 and 393.2) K and pressures from (5.8 to 22) MPa

摘要

High pressure experimental data are presented on the phase equilibrium of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate in supercritical carbon dioxide. Pressure-composition (P-x) isotherms were measured in static method at five temperatures of (313.2, 333.2, 353.2, 373.2 and 393.2) K and at pressures up to 22.0 MPa. This (carbon dioxide+ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) system has continuous critical mixture curves that exhibit maximums in pressure at temperatures between the critical temperatures of carbon dioxide and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. At a fixed pressure, the solubility of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate for the (carbon dioxide+ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) system increases with increasing temperature. The (carbon dioxide+ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) system exhibits type-I phase behavior. The experimental result for the (carbon dioxide+ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) system is correlated with Peng-Robinson equation of state using mixing rule including two adjustable parameters. The critical property of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate is predicted with Joback and Lee-Kesler method.
