VL - 253 Y1 - 2018/// N2 - In this study, thermo physical properties such as density, viscosity, refractive index and surface tension of aqueous solutions of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAOH), tetraethylammonium hydroxide (TEAOH), tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH) was investigated as a function of temperature. These properties were measured in temperatures ranging from 298.15 to 333.15 K and the temperature was increased by an interval of 5 K from 298.15 K and after 303.15 K, it was increased by an interval of 10 K, while the concentrations of all the aqueous solutions were changed from 2.5 to 30 mass percent. The results revealed that the measured properties of all aqueous ILs are inversely related to temperature, while the increase in concentration had different effects on these properties. In the case of density, an increase in the concentration of ILs TMAOH and TEAOH increased their density, while the increase in the concentration of TPAOH and TBAOH decreased their density. On the other hand, the viscosities and refractive indices of all aqueous ILs increased with an increase in concentration, but the surface tensions decreased with the increase in concentration. The derived properties including thermal expansion and excess molar volume of all the aqueous ILs were determined using density data. The thermal expansion data showed an increasing trend with an increase in the temperatures and concentrations of ILs whereas the negative values of excess molar volumes decreased with an increase in temperatures. The correlation of thermo physical properties with temperatures exhibits a good agreement between experimental and predicted values. © 2018 KW - Binary mixtures; Density (specific gravity); Expansion; Ionic liquids; Light polarization; Physical properties; Refractive index; Solutions; Surface tension; Thermal expansion; Viscosity; Volume measurement KW - Derived properties; Excess molar volumes; Measured properties; Tetrabutylammonium hydroxides; Tetraethylammonium; Tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide; Tetrapropylammonium hydroxide; Thermo-physical property KW - Density of liquids ID - scholars10481 ER -
