Measurements on density and viscosity at T = (293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15 313.15, 318.15, 323.15, 328.15, and 333.15) K and the pressure P = 0.1 MPa for binary mixtures of n-dodecane or methylcyclohexane with 1-heptanol or cyclohexylmethanol have been carried out over the whole composition range. Densities were measured with a vibrating-tube densimeter. Viscosities were determined by an automatic microviscometer based on the rolling-ball principle. The excess molar volumes (VmE) and viscosity deviations (Δη) were calculated with experimental data and fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation. The results of these excess or deviation functions are explained by molecular interactions and structural effects. Freezing points were measured with a differential scanning calorimeter. The fundamental data, VmE and Δη can be used to study the nature of mixing behaviors between new hydrocarbon fuels.
