This study aims to correlate the excess thermodynamic properties for new desirable mixtures. The density, refractive index, and viscosity of pure components and mixtures were measured over the entire composition range at atmospheric pressure and different temperatures. The results of measuring the density, viscosity, and refractive index were used to calculate the excess molar volumes, viscosity deviation, excess refractive index, and excess activation energies of viscous flow were reported for binary and ternary mixtures of cyclohexane, n-butanol, and 1-octanol at temperatures 20, 30, 40, and 50oC and over the whole mole fraction range. For all of the binary and ternary mixtures the computed excess molar volumes were correlated by applying the Redlich–Kister equation. and Prigogine–Flory–Patterson (PFP) theory. The correlations of excess molar volume, viscosity deviation, excess refractive index and excess activation energy to understand the effect of polar and nonpolar and temperature increase in the systems. Many works carried out to predict the excess thermodynamic properties, but the mixtures of this work have not been studied so far at such conditions. It is hoped that the present work will help in the availability of experimental data for some unknown mixtures to understand their behavior in the chemical processes, petrochemical industries and design processes.
