Immiscible

A compound that has two immiscible hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts within the same molecule is called an amphiphilic molecule.

Any solute partitions between two immiscible solvents.

As a further option, the gas is now sometimes re-injected into the formation for enhanced oil recovery by pressure maintenance as well as miscible or immiscible flooding.

At low temperatures, the two types of solution can coexist as immiscible phases.

Detailed analysis The interface of two immiscible liquids rotating around a vertical axis is an upward-opening circular paraboloid.

From citation Mutually immiscible liquid phases are formed from water (aqueous phase), hydrophobic organic solvents, perfluorocarbons ( fluorous phase ), silicones, several different metals, and also from molten phosphorus.

Its use is, therefore, not recommended. citation An emulsion is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible (unmixable or unblendable).

On the other hand, water and most oils are immiscible, usually forming layers with the least dense liquid as the top layer, and the most dense layer at the bottom.

Since it is immiscible with water, the main constituent of biological tissue, water must first be removed in the process of dehydration.

The term phase is sometimes used as a synonym for state of matter, but a system can contain several immiscible phases of the same state of matter (see Phase (matter) for further discussion of the difference between the two terms).

This motion causes the column to see one partitioning step per revolution and components of the sample separate in the column due to their partitioning coefficient between the two immiscible liquid phases used.
