Apparent molar volumes of dilute aqueous solutions of monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), triethanolamine (TEA), N,N-dimethylethanolamine (DMEA), ethylethanolamine (EAE), 2-diethylethanolamine (2-DEEA), and 3-methoxypropylamine (3-MPA) and their salts were measured at temperatures from 150 to 325 degrees C and pressures as high as 15 MPa. The results were corrected for the ionization and used to obtain the standard partial molar volumes, Vo2. A three-parameter equation of state was used to describe the temperature and pressure dependence of the standard partial molar volumes.

Apparent molar volumes have been determined using a high-pressure vibrating-tube densimeter for aqueous solutions of glycolic acid (HGly = HOCH(2)COOH) and tartaric acid (H(2)Tar = HOOCCH(OH)CH(OH)COOH) at temperatures from 25 degrees C to 350 degrees C and pressures as high as 20 MPa. The resulting standard partial molar volumes (HGly,aq) are relatively independent of temperature until 315 degrees C, at which point (HGly,aq) deviates sharply toward negative values. This suggests that the Krichevskii parameter, A(Kr) = lim(x(2) --> 0) , which describes the discontinuities in standard partial molar properties at the critical point of water, is negative.
