“…At least from a qualitative perspective, the existence of opposing effects, exo/ endothermic in the H E m and expansion/contraction in the V E m , are the result of different interactional contributions mentioned previously, and clearly vary in relation to the chain length of the compounds constituting the binary mixture, as explained below. In general, the behaviour of these mixtures is as expected from the results obtained in the series of papers [1,2,5,9,10], in which they have been discussed to some length. For this reason, here we only mention the effects that are specific to this type of mixture.…”
