Abstract

"The freezing points of the ternary system methanol-glycol-water have been investigated by Conrad, Hill and Ballman. The vapor-liquid equilibria of the same system was studied by Sjoberg. These investigations were carried out to determine the properties of the system relative to its possible use as an antifreeze mixture.

Since Sjoberg's work in 1948, the improved Othmer equilibrium still has been introduced for vapor-liquid experimental determinations. It is therefore the purpose of the present investigation to evaluate the use of this still, compare results with those obtained by Sjoberg, and analyze ternary mixtures for the entire range of glycol concentrations.

The system has been completely covered in the present work, and is presented graphically. The figures and tables are in Appendix A and Appendix B respectively"--Introduction, page 1.
