Background: The low aqueous solubility of three important drugs (betamethasone (BETA), meloxicam (MEL) and piroxicam (PIR)) have been increased by use of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) based choline chloride/urea (ChCl/U), choline chloride/ethylene glycol (ChCl/EG) and choline chloride/glycerol (ChCl/G) as new class of solvents at T = (298.15 to 313.15) K. Methods: DESs were prepared by combination of the ChCl/EG, U and G with the molar ratios: 1:2. The solubility of drugs in the aqueous DESs solutions was measured at different temperatures with shake flask method. Results: The solubility of the investigated drugs increased with increasing the weight fraction of DESs. The solubility data were correlated by e-NRTL and Wilson models. Also, the thermodynamic functions, Gibbs energy, enthalpy, and entropy of dissolution were calculated. Conclusion: At the same composition of co-solvents and temperature, the BETA, PIR and MEL solubility was highest in (ChCl/U + water), (ChCl/U + water) and (ChCl/EG + water) respectively. The calculated solubility based on these models was in good agreement with the experimental values. In addition, the results show that, the main contribution for drugs solubility in the aqueous DES solutions is the enthalpy.

Background: Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) exist a wide variety of potential and existing applications. Based on the fact that the choline chloride (ChCl) is a complex B vitamin and widely used as food additive, the choline-based DESs are generically regarded as being harmless and non-toxic. In this regard, the low aqueous solubility of celecoxib (CLX) have been increased by use of DESs as neoteric class of solvents at T = (298.15 to 313.15) K. Methods: DESs were prepared by combination of the ChCl/EG, U and G with the molar ratios: 1:2 and ChCl/MA with 1:1. The shake flask method was used to measure the solubility of CLX in the aqueous DESs solutions at different temperatures. Results: The solubility of the CLX increased with increasing the weight fraction of DESs. The observed solubility data was subjected to evaluate the relative performance of a number of models including Apelblat, Yalkowsky and Jouyban–Acree models for their correlation efficacy. Moreover, the apparent dissolution enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy were obtained from the experimental solubility values. Conclusion: It was found that the solubility data was satisfactorily fitted using the mentioned models at different temperatures. The dissolution process of CLX in the studied solvent mixtures within investigated temperature range was endothermic, and the driving mechanism is the positive entropy.

Background: To overcome low solubility of naproxen (NAP), deep eutectic solvents (DESs) based on choline chloride (ChCl) with glycerol (G) and oxalic acid (OA) as green solvents have been used up to 0.9 mole fraction of DES at T = (298.15 to 313.15) K. Methods: DESs were prepared by combination of the two components with the molar ratios: ChCl/glycerol (1:2) and ChCl/oxalic acid (1:1). The solubility of NAP in the aqueous DESs solutions was measured at different temperatures with shake flask method. Results: The solubility in these solvents increased with increasing the weight fraction of DESs, especially in ChCl/OA. The solubility data were correlated by e-NRTL, Wilson and UNIQUAC models. Also, the thermodynamic functions, Gibbs energy, enthalpy, and entropy of dissolution were obtained. Conclusion: Oxalic acid based DES exhibits higher solubility than glycerol based DES. The thermodynamic models were successfully used to correlate solubility data. In addition, the results show that, the main contribution for NAP solubility in the aqueous DES solutions is the enthalpy.

The thermal conductivities of selected deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were determined using the modified transient plane source (MTPS) method over the temperature range from 295 K to 363 K at atmospheric pressure. The results were found to range from 0.198 W·m−1·K−1 to 0.250 W·m−1·K−1. Various empirical and thermodynamic correlations present in literature, including the group contribution method and mixing correlations, were used to model the thermal conductivities of these DES at different temperatures. The predictions of these correlations were compared and consolidated with the reported experimental values. In addition, the thermal conductivities of DES mixtures with water over a wide range of compositions at 298 K and atmospheric pressure were measured. The standard uncertainty in thermal conductivity was estimated to be less than ± 0.001 W·m−1·K−1 and ± 0.05 K in temperature. The results indicated that DES have significant potential for use as heat transfer fluids.

CsCl was computer simulated using the Monte Carlo (MC) method on the basis of interionic pair potentials. Calculations were carried out at constant pressure (1 atm) and at different temperatures covering the liquid phase. The thermodynamic and structural properties thus obtained were in good agreement with the corresponding experimental values when available.A discussion of these properties in relation to those of CsBr and Csl was also carried out. Finally the polarization energy of CsCl along with those of CsBr and Csl, was compared with the results that can be obtained using simpler models recently proposed

Theoretical velocities of binary liquid mixtures of 1-bromopropane with chlorobenzene at 2 MHz and four different temperatures 303.15, 308.15, 313.15 and 318.15 K, have been evaluated as a function of concentration and temperature. The experimental values are compared with theoretical models of liquid mixtures such as Nomoto, Van Dael-Vangeel, Impedance Relation, Rao’s Specific Velocity Method, Junjie’s relations and Free Length Theory. In the chosen system there is a good agreement between experimental and theoretical values calculated by Nomoto’s theory. The deviation in the variation of U2exp/U2imx from unity has also been evaluated for explaining the non ideality in the mixtures. The results are explained in terms of intermolecular interactions occurring in these binary liquid mixtures.

Abstract The processing of lignocellulosic materials is very limited because of their low solubility in water and some organic solvents. Fifteen ternary deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were prepared and tested as solvents suitable for delignification of unbleached pulp. The selected ternary DESs are composed of quaternary ammonium salts and amino acids as hydrogen-bond acceptors, and organic acids and polyvalent alcohols as hydrogen bond donors, with molar ratios varying for the individual components. The delignification efficiency is significantly influenced by the degree of penetration of the solvent into the pulp fibre structure. Therefore, the density and viscosity analysis of individual solvents was performed. Unbleached beech pulp with initial kappa number 13.9 was treated with the prepared DESs. The kappa number indicates the residual lignin content or the bleachability of pulp. The efficiency of the solvents ranged from 1.4% to 28.1%. The most suitable for the pretreatment of fibres, based on lignin removal efficiency, were found to be three DESs, in the following order: malonic acid/choline chloride/1,3-propanediol (1:1:3) > choline chloride/acetamide/lactic acid (1:2:3) > choline chloride/urea/lactic acid (1:2:3).

Break time results carried out for 60Ibs/Mgal linear gel at different breaker and activator concentrations with temperatures for gravel pack jobs done in the past was used in this study. Temperature range investigated was from 180oF to 215oF. A mathematical model was developed for break time prediction as a function of temperature and breaker/activator concentrations. The model was regressed with experimental data using the regression tool in Microsoft Excel. Results of the model prediction were validated with experimental data. The model break time predicted showed good agreement with experimental values with less than 2% deviation. The model equation developed will help predict the break time at the various breaker and activator concentrations at different temperatures. This will help in saving time associated with the rigour in actual laboratory experimental design and testing. This will no doubt improve operational efficiency and service quality delivery.

Theoretical velocities of binary liquid mixtures of anisaldehyde with toluene at 303.15, 308.15, 313.15 and 318.15 K have been evaluated by using theoretical models of liquid mixtures such as Nomoto, Van Dael-Vangeel, Schaff’s collision factor theory and Junjie’s relations. Density and ultrasonic velocity of these mixtures have also been measured as a function of concentration and temperature and the experimental values are compared with the theoretical values. A good agreement has been found between experimental and Nomoto’s theoretical ultrasonic velocities. The results are explained in terms of intermolecular interactions occurring in these binary liquid mixtures.

Amine absorption (or amine scrubbing) is currently the most established method for CO2 capture; however, it has environmental shortcomings and is energy-intensive. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are an interesting alternative to conventional amines. Due to their biodegradability, lower toxicity and lower prices, DESs are considered to be “more benign” absorbents for CO2 capture than ionic liquids. In this work, the CO2 absorption capacity of choline-chloride/levulinic-acid-based (ChCl:LvAc) DESs was measured at different temperatures, pressures and stirring speeds using a vapour–liquid equilibrium rig. DES regeneration was performed using a heat treatment method. The DES compositions studied had ChCl:LvAc molar ratios of 1:2 and 1:3 and water contents of 0, 2.5 and 5 mol%. The experimental results showed that the CO2 absorption capacity of the ChCl:LvAc DESs is strongly affected by the operating pressure and stirring speed, moderately affected by the temperature and minimally affected by the hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA):hydrogen bond donator (HBD) molar ratio as well as water content. Thermodynamic properties for CO2 absorption were calculated from the experimental data. The regeneration of the DESs was performed at different temperatures, with the optimal regeneration temperature estimated to be 80 °C. The DESs exhibited good recyclability and moderate CO2/N2 selectivity.

In this paper, the surface tension, molar volume and density of liquid Ag–Cu–Sn alloys have been calculated using Kohler, Muggianu, Toop, and Hillert models. In addition, the surface tension and viscosity of the Ag–Cu–Sn ternary alloys at different temperatures have been predicted on the basis of Guggenheim and Seetharaman–Sichen equations, respectively. The results show that density and viscosity decrease with increasing tin and increasing temperature for the all studied models. While the surface tension shows a different tendency, especially for the Kohler and Muggianu symmetric models. On the other hand, the molar volume increases with increase of temperature and tin compositions. The calculated values of surface tension and density of Ag–Cu–Sn alloys are compared with the available experimental values and a good agreement was observed.
