Predicting Phase Equilibria Using COSMO-Based Thermodynamic Models and the VT-2004 Sigma-Profile

Solvation-thermodynamics models based on computational quantum mechanics, such as the conductor-like screening model (COSMO), provide a good alternative to traditional group-contribution methods for predicting thermodynamic phase behavior. Two COSMO-based thermodynamic models are COSMO-RS (real solv...
