- No details given.
- No details given.
Measurement Errors:
Ambient temperature: not stated.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): ±5% relative; repeatability of replicable analyses.
Pressure: ±1%; type or error not stated.
System Components:
- Benzene, $\ce{ C6H6 }$; [71-43-2] NIST WebBook

Experimental Data
The three phase critical point was reported to be 541.7K, 9.42 MPa and x1 = 2.528 × 10-2 (10.1 g(1)/100 g sln, compiler).
The authors are also report equations to their own and literature data over the range 273-542K, viz.
ln x1 = -170.04018 + 6922.912/T + 24.398795 lnT
ln x2 = -1.64055 - 2029.41/T + 0.00900544 T
