Preferred Label : miscibility gap;
IUPAC acronym : UCST; LCST;
IUPAC definition : Area within the coexistence curve of an isobaric phase diagram (temperature i vs
/i composition) or an isothermal phase diagram (pressure i vs /i composition).;
Scope note : a miscibility gap is observed at temperatures below an upper critical solution temperature
(ucst) or above the lower critical solution temperature (lcst). its location depends
on pressure. in the miscibility gap, there are at least two phases coexisting.;
