Researchers have identified a new physicochemical principle governing liquid–liquid phase separation in polymer solutions.

Matter in its liquid state is convenient for processing and controlling chemical reactions, owing to its fluidity. Recently much evidence has been accumulated for the existence of a liquid–liquid ...

Liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) in ternary systems concerns the conditions under which a three-component mixture divides into two immiscible liquid phases. At the heart of these phenomena is a delicate ...

Liquids and solutions may look simple, but on the molecular scale they are constantly shifting and reorganizing. When sugar dissolves in water, each sugar molecule quickly becomes surrounded by fast ...

The liquid crystals used in displays nowadays are usually in a nematic phase, i.e. a liquid-like state of almost parallel oriented molecules. However, there is another liquid crystal phase which has a ...

The separation process can be conducted using various instruments, but the most fitting method depends on the mixture’s properties. This article covers the importance of solid-liquid separation in the ...

When liquids containing small particles evaporate, those fluids often leave behind fingerprints like coffee rings or whiskey webs (SN: 10/31/19). But liquids mixed with other liquids leave their own ...

Scientists have discovered a way to write directly into liquid water, creating clear and long-lasting patterns which float below the surface of the fluid. In the new study, published Aug. 21 in the ...

Zero-gravity experiments can tell us a great deal about the effects of temperature change on the concentrations of three different liquids that are mixed together. What does space experimentation have ...
