Critical Properties, Normal Boiling Temperature, and Acentric Factor of Another 200 Ionic Liquids

The critical properties, the normal boiling temperature, and the acentric factor of 200 ionic liquids have been determined using an extended group contribution method, which is based on the well-known concepts of Lydersen and Joback and Reid, that was developed by the authors. The method does not require any additional data besides knowledge of the structure of the molecule and its molecular mass. Because experimental critical properties of ionic liquids are not available, the accuracy of the method is checked by calculating the liquid density of the ionic liquids considered in the study for which experimental data are available in the literature. The results show that the values determined for the critical properties, the normal boiling temperature, and the acentric factor are sufficiently accurate for engineering calculations, generalized correlations, and equation of state methods, among other applications.
