Abstract
This work focuses on physicochemical features of the choline chloride/propylene glycol deep eutectic solvent (DES) + water mixtures by determining their density values in mono- and mixed- states over various temperatures in the range of 293.15-318.15 K. The density data obtained from measurements were utilized for the computation of various quantities such as excess molar volumes, molar volume, apparent molar volume, limiting apparent molar expansibility, and isobaric thermal expansion coefficient. Furthermore, the experimental densities were fitted to some mathematical equations such as Jouyban-Acree, Jouyban-Acreevan't Hoff, modified Jouyban-Acree-van't Hoff, Redlich-Kister and Emmerling. Studies of this nature can provide useful insights into solute-solvent interactions in aqueous solutions of DES, especially about to their novel application in drug solubilization.
