Description
Summary:The pure component properties of many alkenes and dienes required for the design of process plants are not common in the open literature. Estimation methods are veritable tools for bridging this information gap. In this study, three Group Contribution Methods were employed to predict critical properties of twenty three alkenes and ten dienes. The capabilities of the three methods were compared and contrasted within obtainable experimental data. Generally, there was a good agreement between predicted and experimental properties.
