Abstract

•Determine the solubility of 4-chlorotoluene in subcritical water visually.•Solubility of 4-chlorotoluene increases linearly from 262 to 294 °C.•Obtained Raman spectra of water during the dissolution process of 4-chlorotoulene.

The solubility of 4-chlorotoluene in subcritical water was measured using an optically transparent fused silica capillary reactor (FSCR). The total dissolution temperature of 4-chlorotoluene in subcritical water was visually determined. The dissolution uniformity of 4-chlorotoluene in subcritical water was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. The solubility of 4-chlorotoluene linearly increased with increasing temperature in the range 262.3–293.8 °C. The dissolution mechanism of 4-chlorotoluene in subcritical water is proposed based on the Raman spectra of 4-chlorotoluene and water during the dissolution process in the FSCR.
