Thermodynamic Properties of Tetramethoxysilane

A fundamental equation of state for tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) is developed based on the available experimental data. In addition, new density and speed of sound measurements were performed specifically for this work to improve the database. Owing to the limited overall data set, additional thermodynamic properties were analyzed to support the fitting procedure and ensure physically consistent behavior. Modified representations of thermodynamic properties that are typically employed in the fitting procedure were introduced to facilitate the application of constraints. The resulting model provides a consistent description of the thermodynamic properties of TMOS.
