Preferred Label : critical solution point;
IUPAC definition : The point, with coordinates critical solution temperatures and critical composition,
on a temperature-composition phase diagram at which the distinction between co-existent
phases vanishes. In solid-solid, solid-liquid and liquid-liquid systems both upper
and lower critical solution temperatures and corresponding critical solution compositions
can occur. Synonymous with consolute point.;
