Abstract : An empirical correlation was developed for the prediction of solubility of three types of paraffin waxes in various base oils. The correlation was developed using the superposition approach and was proposed as . The range of melting points for the three waxes was 43 to 60°C which correspond to molecular weight range of 336 to 441. Development of the empirical correlation and the experimental data was performed as a function of: Type of wax and base oil; the concentration of the wax in the base oil; and solubility temperature. The developed correlation shows satisfactory agreement with the experimental data with a average deviation of 5.9% and a maximum deviation of 17.9%.
