Physicochemical properties of green solvents derived from biomass

Abstract

Several thermophysical properties (density, refractive index, speed of sound, surface tension, dynamic viscosity, static permittivity and vapour pressure) of five compounds classified as green solvents derived from biomass (furfural, furfuryl alcohol, levulinic acid, ethyl levulinate, butyl levulinate) have been obtained from 278.15 K to 338.15 K. A comparative study has been carried out and information regarding molecular interactions and structure has been obtained.
