Abstract
Measurements of PvT properties, saturated pressures, saturated densities, and critical parameters were carried out for R-13I1 (trifluoroiodomethane; CF3I). Forty-seven PvT property data in the one-phase region along seven isochores for R-13I1 were obtained in the temperatures between 310 and 405 K, pressures up to 6392 kPa, and densities between 48 and 1784 kg·m–3 using the isochoric method. Thirty-seven saturation pressure data for R-13I1 were obtained in the temperatures between 240 K and the critical temperature and pressures between 58 kPa and the critical pressure. Twenty-six saturated density data for R-13I1 were obtained by the observation of meniscus disappearance and the inflection points of the isochore in the densities between 48 and 1784 kg·m–3. On the basis of these measurements, the critical temperature, critical density (critical molar volume), and critical pressure of R-13I1 were determined as Tc = 396.495 ± 0.010 K (with a coverage factor, k = 2), ρc = 865 ± 5 kg·m–3 (vc = 226.5 ± 1.3 cm3·mol–1) (bracketed interval), and Pc = 3971 ± 3 kPa (with a coverage factor, k = 2), respectively. Moreover, a correlation for the saturation pressure and correlations for the vapor liquid coexistence curve were established by optimization techniques.
