Three ternary phase diagrams of ethyl paraben, ethanol, water and propyl paraben, ethanol, water have been determined. The liquid-liquid phase separation has been reported in these three ternary diagrams. In pure water the ethyl paraben and propyl paraben solubility is both below 1. mg/g, while in pure ethanol the solubility is more than three orders of magnitude higher. While the solution saturated with propyl paraben is homogeneous at 30.0. °C, and the solution saturated with ethyl paraben is homogenous at 40.0. °C, however, the higher temperatures induce liquid-liquid phase separation in the ethanol-water mixtures, and the ternary phase diagrams contain five different regions. The size of the liquid-liquid phase separation region increases with increasing temperature. The systematic changes of thermodynamic properties between butyl paraben, propyl paraben and ethyl paraben have been investigated.
