ABSTRACT
New data are reported for the solubility of methane and ethane in six physical solvents [diethylene-, triethylene-, and tetraethylene-glycol dimethyl ethers; triethylene glycol monobutyl ether; a mixture of poly(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ethers (PEGDME 250); and N-formyl morpholine (NFM)]. The solubility data were measured at 25 C, 40 C, and 60 C and expressed in the form of Henry's law constants.
