Stability of Heterophase Inhomogeneities in a System with Phase Separation
L. D. Son
Abstract
It is shown that stable large-scale heterophase formations similar to clouds can exist in a system with phase separation outside the two-phase region on the concentration–temperature diagram and near its boundary. Such formations have a finely dispersed second phase. The applicability of this result to eutectic systems is discussed.
