Equations of state in terms of the Helmholtz energy are presented for octamethyltrisiloxane and decamethyltetrasiloxane. The restricted databases in the literature are augmented by speed of sound measurements, which are carried out by a pulse-echo method. The equations of state are valid in the fluid region up to approximately 600 K and 130 MPa and can be used to calculate all thermodynamic properties by combining the Helmholtz energy and its derivatives with respect to the natural variables. The accuracy of the equation is validated by comparison to experimental data and correct extrapolation behavior is ensured.
