ABSTRACT

Vapor pressures for liquid 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanol (CAS Registry Number 75-84-3), 1-hexanol (CAS Registry Number 111-27-3), 1-heptanol (CAS Registry Number 111-70-6), 1-octanol (CAS Registry Number 111-87-5) and 1-tetradecanol (CAS Registry Number 112-72-1) were measured by the precision comparative ebulliometry over an approximate pressure range from 8 to 100 kPa. The relative uncertainty in pressure is estimated to be less than or equal to 0.05 % of the measured value and the absolute uncertainty in temperature is estimated at less than or equal to 0.01 K on ITS-90. The results are represented by the Antoine equation and compared with available literature data. A new transformation of vapor pressure data, which facilitates the detection of systematic errors, is presented.
