Abstract
We present an analytical formula for the time required to establish steady state in a nucleating binary system. To test our solution, we evaluate the time lag for a range of activities of both components at the vapor-liquid transition, and show that our result is in much better agreement with a purely numerical simulation than other available analytical formulas, which overestimate the time lag by factors of from 2 to 200.
