Thermodynamics of acrylic ester-organic solvent mixtures. V. viscosities and excess viscosities of alkyl acrylates-1-alcohol binary mixtures at 298.15 and 308.15 K

The viscosities Ibr 12 binary mixtures of methyl acrylate (MA), ethyl acrylate (EA), and butyl acrylate (BA)-l-heptanol, l-octanol, -l-decanol, and -I-dodecanol were measured at 298.15 and 308.15 K. The excess viscosities were calculated from the results. The typical variations in the viscosities and excess viscosities of the mixtures as a function of ester mole fractions were explained in terms of structure-breaking dispersion and ester-ester-like iInteractions. The viscosities can be reasonably correlated in terms of Grunberg-Nissan, McAllister, and Auslander equations.
