Abstract
Experimental solubilities are reported for anthracene dissolved in six binary mixtures containing 2-propoxyethanol with n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, cyclohexane, methylcyclohex-ane, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and tert-butylcyclohexane at 298.15 K. Results of these measurements are used to test a mathematical representation based upon the combined Nearly Ideal Binary Solvent (NIBS)/Redlich-Kister model. For the seven systems studied, the model was found to provide an accurate mathematical representation of the experimental results, with an overall average absolute deviation between measured and calculated values being on the order of 0.5 per cent or less.
