Abstract To describe the behavior of liquid state by hole theory, Flory’s combinatorial factor used in the partition function of the hole theory is modified in a general form by assuming that unit segment of chain molecule can occupy more than one unit cell or lattice. From this combinatorial factor and free volume expression, a new equation of state is derived, and is used to calculate the PVT behaviors of 10 pure low molecular weight liquid systems. In addition, the PVT behavior of carbontetrachloridercyclohexane binary system is calculated. Good agreements between the theory and experimental data are obtained. q 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.

1. Introduction Hole theory was developed from cell model by adopting the free volume concept by Eyring and Hirschfelder w1x. Especially for liquid state, free volume model in the hole theory is known to be the best in accuracy. The partition function for the hole theory is composed of three parts, combinatorial term, free volume term and energy term. Until recently, free volume modification has been the main issue in the hole theory. Significant contributions have been made by Simha and Somcynsky w2x and others w3–5x. The combinatorial factor plays an important role in accounting for the geometry and arrangement of molecules. Progress has been made by Staverman w6x and Tompa w7x since Flory w8x and Guggenheim w9x. These combinatorial factors as well as Guggenheim’s are often used in lattice model. On the other hand, Flory’s combinatorial factor, which turned out later to be a limiting case of

Guggenheim’s, has been used in the hole theory because of its simplicity. Even though intramolecular bonding for bulky molecules was considered by Staverman et al., all these combinatorial factors are based on the assumption of a single segment per a single cell r lattice. In the hexagonal close packing structure of cellrlattice, as seen in Fig. 1, one segment of molecule occupies one cellrlattice, which most of the hole theories are based on. In this study, we devise a new molecular arrangement in which a cellrlattice is composed of smaller subcellsrsublattices, as shown in Fig. 2. The new molecular arrangement allows segments of different kinds in chain molecules to occupy different number of subcellsrsublattices. With this idea, we extend Flory’s combinatorial factor more general form in which repeating unit segment of chain molecule occupies p unit subcells with this modified Flory’s combinatorial factor and free volume expression appropriate for this system, we derive a new equation of state and applied it to various pure polymer systems w10x, pure low molecular weight liquid systems. Quite good agreement between the theory and experimental data are obtained for low molecular weight liquid materials especially at low pressure. And we applied it to carbontetrachloridercyclohexane binary liquid mixture in order to predict the PVT behavior.

2. Combinatorial factor The partition function in the hole theory is expressed as:
f s V ÕfCNexp yE0rkT
Ž1.
where, V is combinatorial factor, which determines the number of arrangement of molecules according to their structure and shape, Õf is free volume expressing the mobility and flexibility of molecules, E0 is interaction energy between segments. C and N are the external degree of freedom and the number of molecules, respectively. In this study, we derived a new combinatorial factor based on the following assumptions: Ø The steric hindrance between molecules is neglected. Ø The whole system before arranging molecules is composed of n 0 numbers of smaller unit subcellsrsublattices. Ø N monodisperse s-mers are arranged in this system and other Nh vacant subcells are regarded as holes. Ø One repeating unit segment of chain molecule can occupy a group of subcells, which consists of p subcells. Ø Each group of p subcells which segments of chain molecule occupy is exclusive for other segments of same molecule or other molecules. With these assumptions, the number of ways of arranging i q 1-th s-mer, Õiq1 , assuming that i s-mers already occupy psi unit subcells in total number of n 0 unit subcells, is calculated. The first segment of i q 1-th s-mer can be arranged in n 0-psi vacant cells. The second segment is placed in z neighboring sites of first segment already inserted. The third and other segments are subsequently placed in equal z y 1 neighboring sites of the previous site: Õiq1 s Ž n 0 y psi . z Ž 1 y f i .Ž z y 1 .Ž 1 y f i . PPP Ž z y 1 .Ž 1 y f i .

The cell for any segment to be placed in should be vacant. So, it is necessary to calculate 1 y f i , the probability of finding a vacant cell. Although the f i ’s are different from segment to segment in the same molecules, they can be assumed to be the same without serious error when the equal probability approximation w10x is adopted. Because the agglomerated p unit subcells cannot be distinguished, f i can be calculated as follows: p

Free volume and energy It is known by Eyring and Hirschfelder that the volume change of liquid is closely related by free volume change with increasing hole fraction w1x. Since then, many studies on the free volume has been made. Among them, Simha and Somcynsky proposed a free volume expression by linearly interpolating the solid part free length, v 1r3 y 2y1r6 ÕU1r3, and gas part free length, v 1r3, according to the occupied site fraction y. In this study, we adopted Simha and Somcynsky’s free volume expression modified for our this agglomerated subcell system. That is, the cell volume v is modified to pv : Õf s l f3 s y ž Ž pv .

note that the parameter p, which was at first thought to vary with polymer species, can be set to 1.24 in most polymer melts, except for 1.21 in the case of polycyclohexylmethacrylate, which leads to an improvement of about 15%. For polymer systems studied in this work, irrespective of polymer kinds, PVT of polymer melts can be well described with constant p value of 1.24. This fact clearly shows rather universal characteristics independent of the degree of motion and free volume of the repeating segment. Although the result of this EOS is similar to that of Simha and Somcynsky’s, but a substantial improvement is seen at low pressures. 5.2. Application to low molecular liquids A similar procedure was performed to calculate the PVT of 10 low molecular weight liquid systems. The list of these systems is shown in Table 2. Unlike polymers, low molecular weight

materials have finite chain lengths. Thus, molecular parameters such as sr3c, Ž s y 1.rs in Eq. Ž18-2. are not unities. The relation between the external degree of freedom and the chain length is given by Eq. Ž20.: 3c s s q 3

From Eqs. Ž18-1., Ž18-2. , Ž19-1. , Ž19-2. and Ž20., the molecular parameters for these systems are shown in Table 3, where Large p is another version of equation of state in which the first term Žcombinatorial contribution. of the left hand side in Eq. Ž18-2. is reduced to a simple form: lim p™ `

systems. The reason for this is that the parameter p is related to free volume as in Eq. Ž13.. Especially for n-nonane as shown in Table 3, with the large number of PVT data and the wide range of temperature and pressure, the accuracy of the calculation was improved by about 10% compared to that of Simha Somcynsky’s. From these facts, it can be deduced that in the range of high temperature and low pressure where the kinetic motion of molecules is enhanced, the accuracy of the calculation is much more improved as parameter p increases. Thus, as shown in Table 4, the result of calculation agrees with the experimental data at low pressure.

of state, the energetic binary interaction parameter, j , is also close to unity in Simha Somcynsky’s and Large p version. The value of this energetic binary parameter in this equation of state is as small as about 0.95. Mixing rule for p is not necessary because p values for two components are equal to each other. In Table 5, for the system of carbontetrachloridercyclohexane at atmospheric pressure, a good agreement is obtained by Large p version as Eqs. Ž 18-1. and Ž22. . We deduce from this fact that in the region where dynamic motion of molecules increases, parameter p can fully express this effects, close to infinity. Another reason for the good agreement is attributed to the fact that the entropy change of mixing is far much closer to that of real system. In other words, ideal mixing entropy change is guessed to be smaller than that of real system, but more accurate value close to that of real system can be described with the parameter p derived from the new combinatorial factor.
6. Conclusion A generalized form of Flory’s combinatorial factor was derived from the assumption that a segment of chain molecule occupies more than one cellrlattice. From this, an equation of state based on hole theory was derived and applied to polymer, low molecular systems and binary liquid mixtures. Good agreement was obtained and PVT of mixture was well predicted. Especially for low molecular weight liquid systems at low pressure, Large p version of this equation of state is recommended from the fact that optimized parameter p goes to large value. Parameter p introduced in this study has a clear physical meaning and the degree of dynamic motion of molecule is accounted for by this parameter.
