Viscosities of six higher 1-alkanols (1-hexanol, 1-octanol, 1-decanol, 1-dodecanol, 1-tetradecanol, and 1-hexadecanol) have been determined at temperatures from 298 to 348 K and pressures up to 200 MPa. The viscosity measurements were performed using a falling-body viscometer with an uncertainty of {plus minus}5%. Simple equations are presented to express the experimental viscosities as a function of temperature and pressure within the experimental uncertainty. The relationship between the viscosity and the density of these alkanols is discussed in terms of the significant structure theory extended to high pressures.
