ABSTRACT We report measurements of the vapour–liquid coexistence densities and surface tension of fully flexible Lennard–Jones chain molecules ranging in length from 4 to 60 beads. We demonstrate that the surface tension for all chain lengths collapses to a single master curve when plotted according to the universal parachor correlation. We find a universal parachor exponent 3.79 ± 0.05 for conditions close to the critical point, with a deviation observed for the longest chains far below the critical point.
