Abstract:
In this work we presented a generic density-based model to model the
solubility of four polyphenols (types of antioxidants) Gallic acid, carnosic acid,
epicatechin, and quercetin in a ternary mixture (polyphenol + dioxide of supercritical
carbon-ethanol as a Co-solvent (modifier)).
The solubility’s data of these polyphenols were collected from the literature
and a group of different parameters were proposed for this generic model in order to
evaluate their effects and find the best set for each polyphenols.
The results show that the Rubio model and its parameters are useful in the
calculation of the solubility data of polyphenols.
