Vapor-liquid equilibrium data with solvents were experimentally presented. The effects of these solvents on the relative volatility were also studied. It was observed that an increase in the solvent concentration causes an increase in the relative volatility of ethyl acetate. The azeotrope disappeared when acetic acid or n-butanol mole fractions were greater than 0.20 in the ternary mixture.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAZEOTROPEEXTRACTIVE SOLVENTRELATIVE VOLATILITYOther93151154WOS:A1995RY10500006N/A
