Abstract An interim analytic equation of state for Sulfurhexafluoride is given in the form of a reduced Helmholtz energy function. It represents the thermodynamic properties over the temperature range 222.38 to 525 K for pressures up to 55 MPa. The data selected for determining the linear coefficients of the equation are given, which includes some values predicted using the principle of corresponding states. The method used for the multiproperty fitting is given and, in particular, the functions used for fitting isobaric heat capacities as primary data. Comparisons with values predicted by the equation of state are given for saturation properties, second virial coefficients, densities, and isobaric and isochoric heat capacities. The accuracy of the representation of the equation of state is discussed and, also, the problems arising from inconsistencies between the different data sets. The interim status of this equation of state is due to these inconsistencies.
