Solubility of anthracene and phenanthrene in ethanol + 2,2,4- trimethylpentane mixtures at different temperatures

Abstract

Solubility of anthracene and phenanthrene in binary mixtures of ethanol + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane at (298.2, 308.2, and 318.2) K are reported. Five numerical methods were used to predict the solubility of anthracene and phenanthrene in the studied binary solvent mixtures, and the mean relative deviation (MRD) was used as an error criterion. The MRD values for studied solvents are in acceptable range. © 2011 American Chemical Society.
