A eutectic system or eutectic mixture (/ j uː ˈ t ɛ k t ɪ k / yoo-TEK-tik) [1] is a type of a homogeneous mixture that has a melting point lower than those of the constituents. [2] The lowest possible melting point over all of the mixing ratios of the constituents is called the eutectic temperature .
Deep eutectic solvents or DESs are solutions of Lewis or Brønsted acids and bases which form a eutectic mixture. [1] Deep eutectic solvents are highly tunable through varying the structure or relative ratio of parent components and thus have a wide variety of potential applications including catalytic, separation, and electrochemical processes.
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.
In biology the term 'condensation' is used much more broadly and can also refer to liquid–liquid phase separation to form colloidal emulsions or liquid crystals within cells, and liquid–solid phase separation to form gels, [1] sols, or suspensions within cells as well as liquid-to-solid phase transitions such as DNA condensation during ...
PVP is soluble in water and other polar solvents. For example, it is soluble in various alcohols, such as methanol and ethanol, [30] as well as in more exotic solvents like the deep eutectic solvent formed by choline chloride and urea (Relin). [31] When dry it is a light flaky hygroscopic powder, readily absorbing up to 40% of its weight in ...
A solvation shell or solvation sheath is the solvent interface of any chemical compound or biomolecule that constitutes the solute in a solution. When the solvent is water it is called a hydration shell or hydration sphere. The number of solvent molecules surrounding each unit of solute is called the hydration number of the solute.
Choline chloride is an organic compound with the formula [(CH 3) 3 NCH 2 CH 2 OH] + Cl −. It is a quaternary ammonium salt, consisting of choline cations ([(CH 3) 3 NCH 2 CH 2 OH] +) and chloride anions (Cl −). It is a bifunctional compound, meaning, it contains both a quaternary ammonium functional group and a hydroxyl functional group.
A deeper eutectic or more rapid cooling will result in finer lamellae; as the size of an individual lamellum approaches zero, the system will instead retain its high-temperature structure. Two common cases of this include cooling a liquid to form an amorphous solid , and cooling eutectoid austenite to form martensite .
