Title: Nomenclature of phase diagrams with particular
reference to vapour-liquid and liquid-liquid equilibria
Coordinator(s): T.H.
de Loos
Completion Date: 1999
Objective:
The purpose of this project was to classify phase diagrams of binary
fluid mixtures with regard to the topology of their critical curves
and three-phase curves.
Progress:
A new nomenclature for the phase diagram classes has been developed
which is applicable to the previously known classes as well as to
the recently discovered classes. The new names have the advantage
of being both systematic and descriptive. A technical report was published
in Pure Appl.
Chem.,
Vol. 70, 2233-2257, 1998.
Project completed.
