Vapor Pressure of n-Amyl Acetate: Literature Review and Experimental Determination

Abstract

A thorough review of literature vapor pressure data for n-amyl acetate revealed a conflict in values at ambient temperature. The vapor pressure of a pure sample of n-amyl acetate was determined directly by differential thermal analysis (DTA) and indirectly from evaporation rate. A best fit predictive equation describing vapor pressure of n-amyl acetate as a function of temperature has been generated which is more reliable than currently available literature data.
