Abstract

Abstract An instrument used to determine liquid compressibilities is described as is its use in the determination of density versus pressure for hexamethyldisiloxane and octamethyltrisiloxane. Results at pressures to 10,000 psi, and at temperatures to 200 F for the hexamethyldisiloxane and to 300 F for the octamethyltrisiloxane are shown. The densities are precise within 0.3 per cent.
