Bases: object

The combination of correlations by Huibers and Katritzky (1998) and Banerjee et al (1980) to estimate the correlation between a specific aromatic hydrocarbon’s density and molecular weight with its partition coefficient.

rho_arom = density of aromatic

mol_wt = molecular weight

s = solubility

s = Huibers(rho_arom, mol_wt)

k_ow = Banerjee(s)

= Banerjee(Huibers(rho_arom, mol_wt))

classmethod partition_coeff(mol_wt, density)
Parameters:
  • mol_wt – Molecular weight in kg/kmole

  • density – Density in kg/m^3
