Hexafluorobenzene

[natllc]

I am stuck on my design project until I find out the internal pressure of 4cc of Hexafluorobenzene inside a small ampoule at 250C. I am willing to pay for someone to work with me on that and other tracer materials.

Link to the net page which has an abstract from the NIST on Antoine constants for sat vapor pressure for hexa fluoro benzene

http://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/cbook.cgi?ID=C392563&Mask=4

You may use this or similar sources for vap press for other chemicals.

Sorry, just found out that Tc for this compound is 244degC, so the fluid is either superheated vapor or dense phase at 250degC - so the Antoine constants dont help.

I'd be wary of using the SRK or virial equation to derive this pressure, given its structure. Will write back if I find something that will help.

On page 2-356 of Perry 7th edn, reference is made to the API Technical Data Book for Pr > 1.0, which relies on the Pitzer corresponding states model.
But first, you'll have to determine if this ampoule will indeed go into dense phase ( Pr >1.0). The NIST link should help with calculating Zc for this - since this is a student posting (?), you'll have to figure this out yourself.
