This work presents a new formula to calculate the surface tension of ketones. As a first step, an analysis of the available data of the experimental surface tension data for ketones was made. Experimental data were collected for the following pure fluids: acetone, 2-butanone, 2-pentanone, 3-pentanone, 2-hexanone, 3-heptanone, 4-heptanone, 2-octanone, and 6-undecanone. The data were then regressed with the most reliable semi-empirical correlation methods in the literature based on the corresponding states theory. The final equation proposed is very simple and gives noticeable improvement with respect to existing equations. © 2013 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.

Abstract

This work presents a new formula to calculate the surface tension of ketones. As a first step, an analysis of the available data of the experimental surface tension data for ketones was made. Experimental data were collected for the following pure fluids: acetone, 2-butanone, 2-pentanone, 3-pentanone, 2-hexanone, 3-heptanone, 4-heptanone, 2-octanone, and 6-undecanone. The data were then regressed with the most reliable semi-empirical correlation methods in the literature based on the corresponding states theory. The final equation proposed is very simple and gives noticeable improvement with respect to existing equations. © 2013 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.
