Viscosity and Liquid Density of Asymmetric n-Alkane Mixtures: Measurement and Modeling

Viscosity and liquid density measurements were performed, at atmospheric pressure, in pure and mixed n-decane, n-eicosane, n-docosane, and n-tetracosane from 293.15 K (or above the melting point) up to 343.15 K. The viscosity was determined with a rolling ball viscometer and liquid densities with a vibrating U-tube densimeter. Pure component results agreed, on average, with literature values within 0.2% for liquid density and 3% for viscosity....
