Densities, Viscosities, and Self-Diffusion Coefficients of Ethylene Glycol Oligomers

Abstract: Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is gaining interest as an alternative green solvent in chemical synthesis and processing. This report presents density and viscosity data from 293.15 K to 358.15 K as well as self-diffusion coefficient data from 298.15 K to 358.15 K for oligomers of PEG from di-to nonaethylene glycol. The results were obtained by extrapolation from measurement series where water, the most common impurity in PEGs, was intentionally added in several increments. The obtained results are carefully compare… Show more

“…Furthermore, back-extrapolation to zero water content provides a property value of the pure, neat PEG that should be more accurate compared to attempting a measurement of the PEG sample dried as much as possible. In a prior study of ethylene glycol oligomers up to nonaethylene glycol, the effect of present water was observed to be small but non-negligible, linearly decreasing densities and viscosities and linearly increasing self-diffusion coefficients . In this study, the effect of present water on these three properties is found to be similarly small if not even less up to the measured water mass fractions, w , of about 0.02, which translates to a water mole fraction, x water , of about 0.15.…”

“…Furthermore, we took the same approach of dealing with the most common impurity in PEGs, i.e., water, as was done in this prior study of ethylene glycol oligomers, which is to inspect the dependence of the physical properties on known varying water contents. The physical property values of neat PEG are then obtained from extrapolations to zero water content . We note that while densities and viscosities , ,,, ,, of PEG200 have been reported numerous times, only few of these investigations stated the water content in PEG. ,,,, As we will show, the effect of present water on the reported physical properties is nearly absent for water mole fractions of up to 0.15.…”
