Liquid‐Liquid Equilibrium and Interfacial Properties of the System Water + Hexylacetate + 1‐Hexanol

Experimental and theoretical investigations of the phase diagram and the interfacial tension are presented. The theoretical framework was able to predict the phase behavior and the interfacial tension with a high accuracy, where only binary experimental data enter the model parameter. The theory permits the calculation of the concentration profiles across the interface. The profiles show that 1-hexanol will be enriched, which was expected. In same circumstances a competition between hexylacetate and 1-hexanol was figured out leading to slight minima in the profile of 1-hexanol.
