Methyl allyl alcohol is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H6O and a molecular weight of 70.09 g/mol. It is a colorless and transparent liquid with an odor similar to alcohol. The following are estimated values for some of its physical properties: Density: 0.89 g/cm³; Boiling point: 117–118°C; Melting point: -56°C; Refractive index: 1.422. It should be noted that these values are for reference only, as the actual values can be affected by factors such as experimental conditions and purity. For more accurate data, please refer to relevant literature or conduct experimental tests. -

Thank you for your reply. I am estimating the physical properties for distillation; could you help me with the calculations? I am using Aspen11

The physical property parameters of methyl allyl alcohol can be set in Aspen11. Here is how to set it up: 1. Open the Aspen11 software and create a new flowchart. 2. Add methyl allyl alcohol in the logistics input window, and set parameters such as flow rate and temperature. 3. Click the “Physical Properties” button, and select “Liquid Phase Properties” in the pop-up window. 4. In the liquid phase property settings window, parameters such as the density, viscosity, surface tension, and boiling point of methyl allyl alcohol can be set. 5. After setting the material property parameters, save and run the calculation. At this point, the vapor-liquid equilibrium data for methyl allyl alcohol at various temperatures can be obtained. 6. In distillation column simulations, methyl allyl alcohol can be regarded as a component, and appropriate operating conditions and the number of trays can be set based on its physical property parameters to achieve separation and purification. I hope these steps will be helpful for your distillation operations. -
