The tie-line and liquid-liquid equilibrium data are presented for mixtures of an alkanol + water + toluene or mesitylene at 25-degrees-C. The alkanols are methanol, ethanol, propanol, 2-propanol, butanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol and 2-methyl-2-propanol. The tie-lines and liquid-liquid equilibria for the systems 2-propanol + o-xylene or m-xylene + water were also measured. The results are compared with data for related ternary mixtures containing benzene, p-xylene, cyclohexane or hexane. The plait points were determined by both Treybal's method and the Bachman method.
