A comparison of the capability of some group contribution methods (GCMs) in the estimation of pure compound properties of aliphatic alcohols was carried out. Four GCMs were tested in the prediction of three critical properties and two thermo physical properties of twenty aliphatic alcohols within the C1-C22 range. In the main, there was a good concord between predicted and experimental properties.
