Data for Crystallisation of a Homologous Series of Single and Mixed n-Alkanes (C16 – C23) from Representative Hydrocarbon Fuel Solvents

Jackson, Alexander S. M. and Goberdhan, Dhanesh and Dowding, Peter J. and Roberts, Kevin J. (2023) Data for Crystallisation of a Homologous Series of Single and Mixed n-Alkanes (C16 – C23) from Representative Hydrocarbon Fuel Solvents. University of Leeds. [Dataset] https://doi.org/10.5518/1299

Dataset description

The data presented in this article relates to the crystallisation of 8 single n-alkanes, C16H34 – C23H48 in representative diesel solvents dodecane and toluene, as well as a mixture of these 8-alkanes with a composition representative of real diesel fuel in the same solvents. For the single alkane systems, the data was collected over a range of 5 concentrations ranging from 0.09 – 0.311xi, depending upon the system, and 4 concentrations for the 8-alkane mixture, 0.1 – 0.5 xi. Raw average crystallisation and dissolution points as a function of cooling rate (q) from a polythermal methodology are presented. Along with the equilibrium crystallisation and dissolution temperatures, van’t Hoff fitting parameters, relative critical undercooling (uc) values as a function of q as well as the calculated values of KG and αdet.
