Figure 1: Experimental determination of the Phase Diagram of the ternary system Water-Acetic Acid-Chitosan.

From: Hybrid Core-Shell (HyCoS) Nanoparticles produced by Complex Coacervation for Multimodal Applications

Figure 1

The Phase Diagram is obtained adding dropwise the acetic acid to the Chitosan and Water, allowing the complete dissolution of the polymer. The green spots (-•-) represent the working point showing the complete dissolution of the polymer. The line drafts the miscibility gap between the two different behaviors.
