ABSTRACT

Isothermal (vapour + liquid) equilibrium data were obtained for potentially hazardous binary mixtures of (dichlorosilane + trichlorosilane), (dichlorosilane + tetrachlorosilane), and (trichlorosilane + tetrachlorosilane) using an apparatus based on the static-analytic method. The apparatus was specially developed and designed to ensure safe measurement of the flammable, toxic, and corrosive components. The (dichlorosilane + trichlorosilane) system was measured at T = (343.04, 353.04 and 363.00) K, and the (dichlorosilane + tetrachlorosilane) system at T = (343.28 and 353.07) K, and the (trichlorosilane + tetrachlorosilane) system at T = (323.17, 333.11 and 343.03) K. The resulting data were correlated with the Peng Robinson equation of state coupled with the Wong Sandler mixing rule. The model provided accurate description of all isotherms of the binary systems using temperature-independent interaction parameters regressed for all isotherms.
