Liquid–liquid equilibria of ternary mixtures of dimethyl carbonate, diphenyl carbonate, phenol and water at 358.15 K

The ternary liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) of the following systems were analytically determined at 358.15 K at atmospheric pressure using stirred and thermo-regulated cells: {dimethyl carbonate (DMC) + diphenyl carbonate (DPC) + water}, {DMC + phenol + water} and {DPC + phenol + water}. The experimental ternary LLE data were correlated with the NRTL and UNIQUAC activity coefficient models. Additionally, the Bachman–Brown correlation was used to ascertain the reliability of the experimental data for each system.
