Abstract
IN a recent publication1, many of the binary, hydrocarbon azeotropes of benzene have been described, and it has been shown how the properties of such azeotropes may be correlated with the properties of the non-benzene component. On the basis of this correlation, the occurrence and properties of certain unknown benzene azeotropes have been predicted.
