ABSTRACT
In this work, a thermodynamic study of important industrial solvents, dimethyl carbonate (CAS RN: 616-38-6), diethyl carbonate (CAS RN: 105-58-8), and dipropyl carbonate (CAS RN: 623-96-1) is presented. The vapor pressure pressure measurements were performed using the static method in the temperature interval (238 to 308) K. Heat capacities of condensed phases were measured by Tian Calvet calorimetry in the temperature interval (260 to 358) K. The phase behavior was investigated by DSC in the temperature interval (183 to 300) K. The thermodynamic properties in the ideal gaseous state were calculated using the methods of statistical thermodynamics based on calculated fundamental vibrational frequencies and molecular structure data. Calculated ideal-gas heat capacities and experimental data on vapor pressures, condensed phase heat capacities, and vaporization enthalpies were treated simultaneously to obtain a consistent thermodynamic description.
