The global phase behavior of the two-component systems with intracomponent association: Flory approach.
Within the Flory approach we study the phase diagrams of two-component fluids, the molecules of each component A(f(A)), B(f(B)) bearing f(A) (f(B)) functional groups capable of forming thermoreversible A-A and B-B bonds. We develop a general procedure to classify these diagrams depending on the values of four governing parameters -- entropies and normalized energies of A-A and B-B bonds, and give full topological classification of phase diagrams with f(A,B)> or =3. We show that these phase diagrams can have immiscibility loops and up to four critical points.
