Measurement and correlation of solubility of xylitol in binary water+ethanol solvent mixtures between 278.00 K and 323.00K

The solubility of xylitol in ethanol+water solvent mixtures was measured at temperatures ranging from 278.00 K to 323.00 K at atmospheric pressure by using a laser technique. The results of these measurements were correlated by the combined nearly ideal binary solvent CNIBS/Redlich-Kister equation. The experimental solubility and correlation equation in this work can be used as essential data and models in the purification process of xylitol. The variant 2 in the CNIBS/R-K models was confirmed to be more adaptable to predict solubility of xylitol in binary ethanol +water system. Using the experimentally measured solubilities, the thermodynamic properties of dissolution of xylitol, such as Gibbs energy, molar enthalpy of dissolution, and molar entropy of dissolution, were calculated.     

Measurement and correlation of solubility of trimethylolethane in different pure solvents and binary mixtures

The solubilities of trimethylolethane in butanol,methyl acetate,ethyl acetate as well as in mixed solvents of (methanol + ethyl acetate) and (ethanol + ethyl acetate) were measured with the gravimetTic method in the temperature range from 283.15 K to 318.15 K under atmosphere pressure.The experiment results showed that the solubility of trimethylolethane increased with the temperature,or along with the concentration of methanol or ethanol in the solvents of (methanol + ethyl acetate) and (ethanol + ethyl acetate).In addition,the experiment values were correlated by the van't Hoffequation,Modified Apelblat Equation,λh Equation,CNIBS/R-K equation and Jouyban-Acree Model.The Modified Apelblat Equation provided the best fitting results of the solubility data of TME in the pure solvents while the CNIBS/R-K model showed the best estimation of the solubility in the binary solvent mixtures.Furthermore,the density functional theory (DFT) calculations showed that solubility in different solvents related to the strength of the interaction between the trimethylolethane and the solvent molecules.Finally,the standard molar enthalpy and molar entropy of trimethylolethane during the dissolving process was also calculated by Modified Apelblat equation in this work.     

Prediction of gas solubility in binary polymer+solvent mixtures

This paper is devoted to a theory of gas solubility in highly asymmetrical mixed solvents composed of a low molecular weight (such as water, alcohol, etc.) and a high molecular weight (such as polymer, protein, etc.) cosolvents. The experimental solubilities of Ar, CH₄, C₂H₆ and C₃H₈ in aqueous solutions of polypropylene glycol and polyethylene glycol were selected for comparison with the theory. The approach for predicting these solubilities is based on the Kirkwood-Buff formalism for ternary mixtures, which allowed one to derive a rigorous expression for the Henry constant in mixed solvents. Starting from this expression, the solubilities could be predicted in terms of those in each of the two constituents and the properties of the mixed solvent. This expression combined with the Flory-Huggins equation for the activity coefficient in a binary mixed solvent provided very accurate results, when the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter was used as an adjustable quantity. A simple expression in which the solubility could be predicted in terms of those in each of the two constituents and the molar volumes of the latter was also derived. While less accurate that the previous expression, it provided more than satisfactory results.     

Solubility measurement and thermodynamic properties of sulfamonomethoxine in pure solvents and sulfamonomethoxine hydrate in acetone + water binary solvent at different temperature

The experimental solubility of sulfamonomethoxine in six different pure solvents (methanol,ethanol,1-propanol,l-butanol,ethyl acetate and acetone) and sulfamonomethoxine hydrate in acetone + water mixture solvents were measured from 294.55 K to 362.15 K by a laser dynamic method under atmospheric pressure.Experimental results indicated that the solubility data of sulfamonomethoxine increased with temperature increasing in pure solvents and the solubility followed this order:acetone ＞methanol ＞ ethanol ＞ ethyl acetate ＞ 1-propanol ＞ 1-butanol,but solubility in ethyl acetate was not affected significantly by temperature.In acetone + water mixture solvent,the solubility of sulfa-monomethoxine hydrate increased with temperature and the acetone concentration.Thermodynamic equations were applied to correlate solubility data of sulfamonomethoxine and sulfamonomethoxine hydrate including the modified Apelblat equation,λh equation,Wilson equation,NRTL equation,Van't Hoff-Jouyban Acree equation and modified Apel-Jouyban-Acree equation.Furthermore,thermodynamic properties △Gd,△Hd and △Sd of sulfamonomethoxine and sulfamonomethoxine hydrate in dissolution process were obtained and discussed with the modified Van't Hoff equation and Gibbs equation.     

Measurement and correlation of the solubility of sodium acetate in eight pure and binary solvents

The knowledge of solubility of a salt in either the pure solvent or blend solvent is of great importance for studying or operating the crystallization, extraction, and distillation processes. The solubility of sodium acetate (NaAc) in four pure solvents (water, ethanol, acetic acid and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol) and four binary solvents (water–ethanol, water-acetic acid, acetic acid–ethanol, and acetic acid-ethyl acetate) were measured by using the laser dynamic method at temperatures from 288.15 K to 338.15 K at 0.1 MPa. The results showed that the solubility of NaAc was influenced by either the solution temperature or solvent composition. The aqueous sodium acetate solution possessed the maximal solubility under the experimental conditions. The solubility of NaAc in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol was found to be decreased with the increase of the solution temperature. While, the solubilities of NaAc in other seven solvents increased as the solution temperature was elevated. Besides, five correlation models, including the van't Hoff model, modified Apelblat model, Yaws model, λh model, and modified Apelblat-Jouyban-Acree model were used to correlate the solubility data of those sodium acetate solutions with acceptable deviation, respectively. Finally, van't Hoff analysis method was selected to analyze the change law of thermodynamic properties of a salt during the dissolution process.     

Measurement and correlation of solubility of diosmin in four pure solvents and β-cyclodextrin solution at 298.15 K to 333.15 K

The aim of present study was to measure and correlate the solubility of poorly water-soluble flavonoid diosmin in water, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol (IPA), polyethylene glycol-400 (PEG-400) andβ-cyclodextrin (β-CD) aqueous solution (0.02 mol·L-1). The solubility of diosmin was measured using the shake flask method from (298.15 to 333.15) K at atmospheric pressure. The experimental solubilities of diosmin were regressed by the modified Apelblat model with a relative deviation in the range of 0.048%to 5.940%. The correlation coefficients were observed in the range of 0.9957 to 0.9995. The solubility of diosmin was found to be increased with temperature in all sample matrices investigated. The mole fraction solubility of diosmin was found to be higher inβ-CD aqueous solution and PEG-400 as compared to water, ethanol and IPA. Based on solubility data of present study, diosmin was considered as practical y insoluble in water, insoluble in ethanol&IPA and soluble in PEG-400 andβ-CD aqueous solution.     

Measurement and correlation solubility of cefixime trihydrate and oxymetholone in supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2)

The equilibrium solubilities of cefixime trihydrate and oxymetholone in supercritical carbon dioxide (CO₂) were measured using a “static method”. Cefixime trihydrate is a cephalosporin antibiotic drug and Oxymetholone is a 17alpha-alkylated anabolic-androgenic steroid drug. The experimental measurements for cefixime trihydrate were performed at temperatures of 308, 318 and 328 K as well as pressure range from 183 to 335 bar. The solubility of oxymetholone was determined at 308, 318 and 328 K and pressure range from 121 to 305 bar. The experimental solubility data (mole fraction) for cefixime trihydrate and oxymetholone was greater than 1.6 × 10⁻⁷ and 1.6 × 10⁻⁵ and less than 3.02 × 10⁻⁷ and 1.49 × 10⁻⁴, respectively. The solubilities for two drugs in CO₂ were correlated by using four semi-empirical models such as Bartle, Kumar and Johnstone (K–J), Mendez-Santiago and Teja (M–T) and Chrastil models. The results obtained from the semi-empirical models show that there is good agreement between the experimental data and the results of semi-empirical models. By using the correlation results, the heat of drug–CO₂ solvation and heat of drug vaporization for cefixime–CO₂ and oxymetholone–CO₂ systems may be approximately estimated. Also, the Peng–Robinson (PR) cubic equation of state (CEOS) along with the van der Waals combining rule was applied to correlate the drugs solubilities in supercritical CO₂. The average absolute deviation between the experimental data and the results of PR equation for cefixime trihydrate and oxymetholone was 11.92% and 11.74%, respectively.     

Determination and correlation solubility of m-phenylenediamine in (methanol,ethanol, acetonitrile and water) and their binary solvents from 278.15 K to 313.15 K

In this study, the solubility of m-phenylenediamine in four pure solvents(methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile and water) and three binary solvent(methanol + water),(ethanol + water) and(acetonitrile + water) systems were determined in the temperature ranging from 278.15 K to 313.15 K by using the gravimetric method under atmospheric pressure. In the temperature range of 278.15 K to 313.15 K, the mole fraction solubility values of m-phenylenediamine in water, methanol, ethanol, and acetonitrile are 0.0093–0.1533, 0.1668–0.5589,0.1072–0.5356, and 0.1717–0.6438, respectively. At constant temperature and solvent composition, the mole fraction solubility of o-phenylenediamine in four pure solvents was increased as the following order:water b ethanol b methanol b acetonitrile; and in the three binary solvent mixtures could be ranked as follows:(ethanol + water) b(methanol + water) b(acetonitrile + water). The relationship between the experimental temperature and the solubility of m-phenylenediamine was revealed as follows: the solubility of mphenylenediamine in pure and binary solvents could be increased with the increase of temperature. The experimental values were correlated with the Jouyban–Acree model, van't Hoff–Jouyban–Acree model, modified Apelblat–Jouyban–Acree model, Sun model and Ma model. The standard dissolution enthalpy, standard dissolution entropy and the Gibbs energy were calculated based on the experimental solubility data. In the binary solvent mixtures, the dissolution of m-phenylenediamine could be an endothermic process. The solubility data,correlation equations and thermodynamic property obtained from this study would be invoked as basic data and models regarding the purification and crystallization process of m-phenylenediamine.     

Response surface optimization of the purification process of cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine explosive via digestion in binary solvent mixtures of acetone/water

The present study introduces a new route for the purification of cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) explosive containing cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine (HMX) impurity, based on the digestion of crude materials in the binary solvent of acetone/water. Here, first, the solubility data, enthalpy of dissolution and mixing of RDX and HMX were determined experimentally in binary solvent. Then, the effects of various factors on the purification of RDX were studied statistically via response surface methodology (RSM) experimental design. In this technique, unlike the solubility data, unexpectedly HMX was dissolved with higher ratio and solid RDX was obtained with purity >99.5 wt.% and improved crystal morphology.     

Adsorption of nile red by poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) gels in binary water/tetrahydrofuran mixtures

The adsorption of Nile Red by poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) gels in binary water/tetrahydrofuran solutions was investigated using absorption spectrophotometry as a function of the volume fraction of THF, φ. Due to the cononsolvency abilities of such binary solvent mixtures, deswelling of the PNIPAM gels is observed in water‐rich mixtures, 0 ≤ φ ≤ 0.6, while the gels reswell for φ > 0.6. The position of the absorption band of Nile Red before and after equilibration with the PNIPAM gels indicates that the composition of the external solvent mixture is not practically influenced by the swelling process. On the other hand, it is found that the gels can effectively adsorb Nile Red in water‐rich mixtures (φ < 0.6), whereas no significant adsorption was observed in tetrahydrofuran‐rich mixtures. In fact, about 80% of the dye is adsorbed by the PNIPAM gels, at φ = 0.2. Under these conditions, the rather shrunk PNIPAM gel offers a more convenient less polar environment for Nile Red than the water‐rich bulk solvent. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Solubility of piperonal in different pure solvents and binary isopropanol+water solvent mixtures

Using a laser monitoring observation technique, the solubilities of piperonal in different pure solvents and binary isopropanol+water solvent mixtures were determined by synthetic method from 273.15 K to 293.15 K. Results of these measurements were correlated by Apelbat equation and the combined nearly ideal binary solvent (CNIBS)/Redlich-Kister equation. The results find that Apelbat equation and the combined ideal binary solvent (CNIBS)/Redlich-Kister equation provided accurate mathematical representations of the experimental data, respectively.     

Thermodynamics of supersaturated solutions: From ternary electrolyte+solute+H2O to binary solute+H2O systems

In our previous paper, a new experimental technique based on the potentiometric method was developed to obtain thermodynamic activity data (in form of activity ratio) particularly for ternary electrolyte+nonelectrolyte+H₂O solutions supersaturated with the nonelectrolyte. In this paper, a rigorous thermodynamic approach is proposed to derive activity data for binary nonelectrolyte+H₂O solutions in the supersaturated region, via cell potentials of an electrolyte tracer and solubility data of the nonelectrolyte. An analysis of thermodynamic consistency is presented to evaluate the reliability and accuracy of the measured data. A systematic experimental investigation of three ternary electrolyte+nonelectrolyte+H₂O and two binary nonelectrolyte+H₂O systems is reported in both under-saturated and supersaturated regions (up to a supersaturation level of approximately 27%). Interesting thermodynamic behaviors are observed and their significance is discussed, with the role of thermodynamics in exploration of crystallization phenomena highlighted.     

Determination and correlation of the solubility of L-arabinose and D-galactose in binary solvent mixtures from 278.15 to 333.15 K

L-arabinose and D-galactose could be released during the hydrolysis process of Arabic gum. The development of a crystallization process of L-arabinose is highly dependent on the knowledge of the solubility of both saccharides. In this work, the solubility of L-arabinose and D-galactose in binary mixtures of methanol-water or ethanol-water (mole fraction of water ≤0.5816) was determined at temperatures between 278.15 and 333.15 K by a static equilibrium method. The experimental data correlated well with the modified Apelblat equation, the simplified polynomial empirical equation, NRTL model and UNIQUAC model. Additionally, the thermodynamic properties including the dissolution enthalpy and entropy were obtained from the experimental data. Within the studied temperature range, the dissolution is endothermic and the dissolution process is non-spontaneous.     

The solubility of poly(vinylidene chloride) in solvent mixtures

Effective solvents for poly(vinylidene chloride) (PVDC) were obtained by mixing a polar aprotic solvent with a less polar solvent of cyclic structure. The polar components included sulfoxides, N,N-dialkylamides, and N-alkyl lactams. The cyclic cosolvents included aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, ketones, ethers, and thioethers. The problem of solubility of a crystalline polymer in a mixed solvent was analyzed by extending the Flory theory of melting point depression to three component mixtures. The results predict that favorable mixtures arise when at least one of the components interacts strongly with the polymer but is nearly incompatible with the cosolvent. This is in qualitative agreement with the observed behavior of PVDC.     

Measurement and correlation of solubility and thermodynamic properties of N-acetyl-l-glutamine in some pure solvents and binary solvents at various temperatures

The solubility data of N-acetyl-l-glutamine in aqueous solution with different proportions of methanol and ethanol were determined with a static analytical method from 293.15 to 318.15?K. The data were then correlated by five models including the modified Apelblat equation, Van’t Hoff equation, local composition model (NRTL model), CNIBS/Redlich–Kister model, and Jouyban–Acree model. The results show that Van’t Hoff equation agrees well with the experimental data. When the ratio of methanol or ethanol in aqueous solution is in the range of 0.2–0.4, the solubility of N-acetyl-l-glutamine reaches its maximum. Besides, the melting temperature and fusion enthalpy of N-acetyl-l-glutamine were measured by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and no polymorphism was found in the systems studied. The thermodynamic properties including enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy during dissolution were calculated accordingly in this work.

Measurement and correlation of solid–liquid phase equilibria for binary and ternary systems consisting of N-vinylpyrrolidone, 2-pyrrolidone and water

The solid–liquid equilibria(SLE)for binary and ternary systems consisting of N-Vinylpyrrolidone(NVP),2-Pyrrolidone(2-P)and water are measured.The phase diagrams of NVP(1)+2-P(2),NVP(1)+water(2),NVP(1)+2-P(2)+1 wt%water(3)and NVP(1)+2-P(2)+2 wt%water(3)are identified as simple eutectic type with the eutectic points at 263.75 K(x_(1E)=0.5427),251.65 K(x_(1E)=0.3722),260.25 K(x_(1E)=0.5031)and256.55 K(x_(1E)=0.4684),respectively.The phase diagram of 2-P(1)+water(2)has two eutectic points(x_(1E)=0.1236,T_E=259.15 K and x_(1E)=0.7831,T_E=286.15 K)and one congruent melting point(x_(1C)=0.4997,T_C=303.55 K)because of the generation of a congruently melting addition compound:2-P·H_2O.The ideal solubility and the UNIFAC models were applied to predict the SLE,while the Wilson and NRTL models were employed in correlating the experimental data.The best correlation of the SLE data has been obtained by the Wilson model for the binary system of NVP+2-P.The UNIFAC model gives more satisfactory predictions than the ideal solubility model.     

Experimental measurement and thermodynamic modeling of binary and ternary solid-liquid phase equilibrium for the systems formed by L-arabinose,D-xylose and water

Solid-liquid phase equilibrium data for binary (L-arabinose-water) and (D-xylose-water) systems at temperatures from (269.85-298.05) K and ternary (L-arabinose-D-xylose-water) system at temperatures of 273.85 K,278.85 K and 284.45 K were measured at atmospheric pressure.The ternary phase diagrams of the systems were constructed on the base of the measured solubility.Two pure solid phases were formed at given temperatures,including pure L-arabinose and pure D-xylose,which were confirmed and determined by the method of Schreinemakers' wet residue.At the same temperature,the crystallization region of L-arabinose was larger than D-xylose's.The acquired solubility data were then correlated using the NRTL model,Wilson model and Xu model.The calculated solubility with the three models agreed well with the experimental values.
