Physical Properties of Sulfur Compounds a Literature Review -- 1956 - 1960

摘要

The table of physical properties are the result of an extensive literature search that has been continued as part of the Bureau of Mines' study of sulfur compounds in petroleum. This study, carried on cooperatively with American Petroleum Institute Research Project 48 (discontinued in 1966), was concerned with the types of sulfur compounds that have been found in petroleum, namely the thiols (mercaptans), sulfides (thioethers), disulfides, and thiophenes. The tables include all of these compounds from C1 through Cn except those compounds that have atoms other than carbon, hydrogen, and sulfur. The literature from 1956 through 1960 was searched for physical property data. Secondary sources, such as Beilstein, Chemical Abstracts, and British Abstracts, were used to locate references, but primary sources were consulted wherever practical. Some previously unpublished data obtained by the Bureau of Mines is included. The properties tabulated are boiling point, density, refractive index, and freezing point. At the end of the table of properties for each compound, references are given for such properties as viscosity, vapor pressure, surface tension, and themodynamic functions. (Author)
