Solid-liquid equilibrium (SLE) data for the glyphosate in
methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, 2-propanol, acetone, benzene and ethyl acetate, and aqueous sodium
chloride solutions were measured with a temperature range from (283 to 352) K. The hypothetical
enthalpy of fusion and melting temperature of glyphosate were estimated. The Wilson model, the
nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) model, the universal quasi-chemical (UNIQUAC) model, and the
Scatchard-Hildebrand (SH) model were applied to correlate the solid-liquid equilibrium. It is
shown that the Wilson model can give better results than NRTL and UNIQUAC model. The solubility
parameter of glyphosate was obtained based on the SH model. In aqueous sodium chloride solutions,
the solubility of glyphosate increases with the molality of sodium chloride increasing. The
system of glyphosate + sodium chloride + water is found to exhibit a synergistic effect. (C) 2012
