Abstract Isobaric thermal expansivities, αp, ofn-hexane have been measured by pressure-controlled scanning calorimetry from just above the saturation vapor pressure to 40 MPa at temperatures from 303 to 453 K and to 300 MPa at 503 K. These new data are combined with literature data to obtain a correlation equation for αp valid from 240 to 503 K at pressures up to 700 MPa. Correlation equations are developed for the saturated vapor pressure, specific volume, and isobaric heat capacity of liquid n-hexane from 240 to 503 K. Calculated volumes, isobaric and isochoric specific heat capacities. isothermal compressibilities, and thermal coefficients of pressure are presented for the entire range of pressure and temperature. The pressure-temperature behavior of these quantities is discussed as a model behavior for simple liquids without strong intermolecular interactions.
