Abstract

In the present work, we propose a new group-contribution method to estimate the boiling point, freezing point and the liquid density at 20°C of hydrocarbons. The method was tested with satisfactory accuracy, and when compared with other group-contribution methods, it reveals better results in terms of average standard deviations.
