The correlated surface tensions of CO2-ethanol mixtures agreed well with the experimental data. The results illustrated the temperature and pressure dependence of the cross-association between CO2 and alcohol hydroxyls in the whole vapor-liquid surface,and the influence of the cross-association on the calculation of the surface tensions of binary mixtures.展开更多
