Equilibrium phase behavior of ethylene glycol/glycerin+RbNO₃/CsNO₃+H₂O at 288.15 and 298.15 K

Abstract

The solubilities, densities and refractive indices for the four ternary systems ethylene glycol/glycerin+RbNO₃/CsNO₃+H₂O were measured with mass fractions of ethylene glycol or glycerin in a range of 0 to 1.0 at 288.15 and 298.15 K. In all the cases, the presence of either ethylene glycol or glycerin significantly reduces the solubilities of the rubidium nitrate and cesium nitrate in aqueous solution, but the refractive indices increase with the increase of mass fraction of either ethylene glycol or glycerin. The density, refractive index and solubility of the saturated ternary systems were correlated with each other via polynomial equations. In addition, the refractive indices and densities of unsaturated solutions were also determined for the four ternary systems with different salt concentrations, which were correlated with the salt concentration and proportion of ethylene glycol or glycerin in the solution.
