Abstract  The molar volume isotherms of trans-decahydronaphthalene (C$_{10}$H$_{18}$) between 293 and 446 K and at pressures from 10 to 200 MPa have been determined. A modified Tait equation of state is used to fit each experimental molar volume isotherm with a maximum average deviation of 0.029%. The thermal expansivity (cubic expansion coefficient) $\alpha$  and isothermal compressibility $\kappa$  were determined by fitting the slopes of the isobaric curves and isotherms, respectively. The coefficients in the equation $V_m=C_1+C_2 T+C_3 T^2 - C_4 p - C_5 pT$ have been fitted with an average deviation of 1.03%.
