Viscosities of binary liquid systems: Prediction and correlation

The viscosity of binary liquid systems of 1-Butanol, C 4 H 9 OH with Hexadecane, C 16 H 34 and Squalane, C 30 H 62 , were determined theoretically over the complete concentration range, at 298.15, 303.15, 308.15 K and at atmospheric pressure. Hinds relation and modified Kendall-Monroe method is employed in the calculation. Deviation in viscosity is calculated and the obtained results were analysed in terms of the applied approach, the structure of the investigated system, the nature of components of the binary liquid systems and the interactions in the system.
