Application of the ERAS model to volumetric properties of binary mixtures of banana oil with primary and secondary alcohols (C1–C4) at different temperatures

The densities of binary mixtures of {isoamyl acetate + alcohols (methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, and 2-butanol)}, including those of pure liquids, over the entire composition range were measured at temperatures (293.15 to 333.15) K and atmospheric pressure by means of a vibrating-tube densimeter. The excess molar volume, VmE, thermal expansion coefficients, α, and their excess values, αE, were calculated from density data. The VmE values are positive over the entire range of composition and temperature and become more positive with increasing temperature for all of the mixtures except for the (isoamyl acetate + methanol) mixture. The VmE values were correlated by Redlich–Kister equation and the extended real associated solution (ERAS) model was used for describing VmE values at T = 303.15 K.
