THE ISOTHERMAL COMPRESSIBILITY OF GAS-SATURATED HYDROCARBON LIQUIDS

Abstract

Volumetric measurements were made on compressed solutions of carbon dioxide in n-decane and trans-decalin at 37.78°C at pressures up to 60 bar. The data were numerically analyzed to yield the isothermal compressibility function of the solutions at their saturation pressures.
