Liquid density of 1-pentanol at pressures up to 140 MPa and from 293.15 to 403.15 K
Introduction
In a recent article (Zuñiga-Moreno et al., [1]) it has been underlined that accurate PVT properties of pure compounds are required to develop and test Equation of states (EoS). The authors stressed that the evaluation of experimental properties data has become of high importance in the scientific community. Moreover, for the optimized design of several industrial processes, reliable experimental data are needed. Among others, volumetric properties such as density and its derived properties are important thermodynamic properties which characterize chemical compounds. These quantities provide important information on the behavior of pure liquids useful for the understanding of the molecular interactions.
More particularly, the authors [1] made new measurements concerning densities of 1-pentanol. Nevertheless these new measurements have been restricted to pressure equal to or lower than 25 MPa, in a narrow temperature interval, from 313.1 to 362.5 K. To extend this previous work, in order to give more information about 1-pentanol density we present here results obtained up to 140 MPa from 293.15 to 403.15 K, with an uncertainty of around 0.05% (i.e. 0.5 kg m−3). In addition the isobaric thermal expansivity, αp = −(1/ρ)(∂ρ/∂T)P, and isothermal compressibility, κT = (1/ρ)(∂ρ/∂p)T, have also been derived.
The density values obtained in the present work will be compared with previous literature data. Liquid densities for 1-pentanol at high pressure have been measured by [1], Bridgman [2], Walsh and Rice [3], Sahli et al. [4], Gylmanov et al. [5], Zolin et al. [6], Altunin and Konikevich [7], Garg et al. [8], Wappman et al. [9], Sulzner and Luft [10]. The number of data points, range of temperature and pressure, compound purity, and the claimed uncertainty for the data reported by mentioned references are presented in Table 1. Notice that Table 1 is similar to the part concerning 1-pentanol of Table 1 in ref. [1], which authors have made a complete bibliographic analysis on the subject (high pressure density of 1-pentanol and 2-pentanol) except the fact that measurements of [1] about 1-pentanol have been added in the last row. As we can see the review of the currently available literature sources reveals that there is still a lack of information on the density of 1-pentanol. The database for thermophysical properties of this compound, at present, is scarce and limited. Notice that in [1] the uncertainty is 0.2 kg m−3 (i.e. around 0.02%) but with narrow pressure interval (up to 25 MPa) and in the recent studies [9], [10] the pressure interval is up to around 200 MPa but the uncertainty is only of the order of 0.4% (i.e. around 4 kg m−3) for ref. [10] and up to 0.6% (i.e. around 6 kg m−3) for ref. [9]. It is also worth to mention that in 1993 and 1994, Cibulka and Zikova [11], [12] made a critical evaluation of experimental data for liquid density of some 1-alkanols, completed in 1997 for higher 1-alkanols (Cibulka et al., [13]). Their review about 1-pentanol [11], [12] included papers published up to 1993 [2], [3], [5], [6], [8]. Nevertheless, as the values obtained by extrapolating at high pressure, or high temperature measurements already done, may be uncertain, it is useful to get additional experimental measurements.
In addition, the study of this compound presents obvious industrial interest in engineering applications and it also presents fundamental aspects as 1-pentanol is highly polar and very associative compound. We can expect that these experimental data will be valuable for testing various theoretical models attempting to take into account the polar and associating effects between molecules.

Materials
1-Pentanol (C5H12O, molar mass 88.15 g mol−1, CAS-RN: 71-41-0) was obtained from Sigma–Aldrich with purity of 99% (with certificate of analysis by gas chromatography of respectively 99.5%). This chemical was subject to no further purification and directly injected into the high pressure cell as soon as the bottle was opened.
Measurement technique. Experimental procedure
An Anton Paar DMA HPM high pressure vibrating-tube densimeter was used to measure the density ρ as a function of pressure p (up to 140 MPa) and temperature T (between 293.15
Results
The measured densities of 1-pentanol are reported in Table 2 along the 12 isotherms between 293.15 and 403.15 K at pressures up to 140 MPa (15 isobars). Our data have been compared with the correlation given in [12]. This review covers papers published before 1993 [2], [3], [5], [6], [8] and the majority of the data points are below 60 MPa (236 values). For pressures above 60 MPa (20 data points) the temperature is between 292.15 and 448.15 K, but at very high pressures between 980.6 and 11590 MPa.
The derived thermodynamic properties
The temperature and pressure dependence of the isothermal compressibility, κT, is obtained from Equation (1) and is expressed as follows:Similarly the isobaric thermal expansivity could also be obtained analytically by differentiating Eq. (1) taking into account the temperature dependence of ρ0(T) and B(T). But as Cerdeiriña et al. [29] and Troncoso et al. [30] mention, the estimated isobaric thermal expansivity depends on the form of
