Abstract
The volumetric behavior of propene was investigated at temperatures from 40° to 460° F. and pressures from 10,000 pounds per square inch absolute to values well below vapor pressure at 40° F. The results are tabulated and are compared graphically with the data of other investigators.
Three mixtures of propene and 1-butene were subjected to volumetric study at temperatures from 40° to 280° F. in the pressure range from 10,000 to about 100 pounds per square inch absolute. The results are tabulated separately for the single-phase and two-phase regions pf each mixture. Variations of actual behavior from that of ideal solutions are shown graphically.
