Preferred Label : upper critical solution temperature;
IUPAC acronym : UCST; LCST;
IUPAC definition : critical temperature above which a mixture is miscible.;
Scope note : for a mixture containing or consisting of polymeric components, these may be different
polymers or species of different molar mass of the same polymer.; the ucst depends upon the pressure and molar-mass distributions of the constituent
polymer(s).; above the ucst and below the lcst, if it exists, a single phase exists for all compositions.;
Origin ID : UT07280;
