Solubility of Oxygen in Acetone

[philbob]

Can anybody help me on this one? I need to determine the solubility of oxygen (in air) in Acetone. The only information I have on Acetone is its Solubility parameter and Polarity, which may be useful if I compare acetone to a more well known solvent (Water), and scale accordingly, although I'm concerned because they're different chemical species. Any help would be appreciated.

I suggest you measure it with an Orsat type of apparatus. I did it a very long time ago to measure the solubility of air in MiBK.

Many thanks for responding to my query, however, I was wondering if there is already published information on the solubility of oxygen in acetone, as we are examining future use of acetone, rather than dealing with an wxisting system
