Abstract

Graphical abstract: Highlights: MCl + TMU + H2 O systems (M = Na, K, Rb, Cs; TMU = tetramethylurea). LLE systems of CsCl + TMU + H2 O at 298.2 and 308.2 K. SLE system of CsCl + TMU + H2 O at 288.2 K. SLE systems of NaCl/KCl/RbCl + TMU + H2 O at 288.2, 298.2 and 308.2 K. Affecting factors of temperature, solubility and solvent properties are discussed. Abstract: For this article, we investigated the phase behavior and physicochemical properties of the ternary systems MCl (M = Na, K, Rb, Cs) + tetramethylurea (TMU) + H2 O at temperatures of 288.2, 298.2 and 308.2 K. For (solid–liquid) equilibrium (SLE) systems (NaCl/KCl/RbCl + TMU + H2 O at three temperatures and CsCl + TMU + H2 O at 288.2 K), the density, solubility and refractive index about the saturated solutions was obtained. About (liquid–liquid) equilibrium (LLE) systems (CsCl + TMU + H2 O at 298.2 and 308.2 K), the binodal curves and tie lines were obtained. The three parameter equation, Othmer-Tobias and Bancroft equations were used to correlate the SLE and LLE data.
