Abstract
AbstractExperimental results of liquid‐liquid phase equilibrium in a polydisperse blend of two polyalkylsiloxane are presented here. The UCST has an unusual pressure dependence: pressure induced miscibility at moderate pressures and pressure induced immiscibility at higher pressures, above a double critical point. The cloud point curve has two maxima in (concentration, temperature) as well as in (concentration, pressure) space. Approaching the double critical point, the high and low pressure branches of the cloud point curve merge and in a certain stage of this merging, they form a miscibility island located inside the two‐phase region. Islands of this kind can give us a new tool to mix virtually immiscible blends.
