The effects of cosolvents (diethyl glycol, dimethylsulfoxide, N-methylformamide) on the performance of dimethylformamide in benzene-cyclohexane separation were studied. The result shows the selected cosolvents suppress the effectiveness of dimethylformamide. The result also shows that the ratio of cosolvents to dimethylformamide affects the separation factor. © 2014 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2014 publisher: Trans Tech Publications Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84914148228&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMM.625.578&partnerID=40&md5=e721faf3ab73a87807e99ba7510f7252 id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.625.578 full_text_status: none publication: Applied Mechanics and Materials volume: 625 pagerange: 578-581 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783038351818 issn: 16609336 citation: Richard, B. and Bustam, M.A. and Gonfa, G.
