In the case of ternary isothermal liquid-liquid equilibria, the spinodal curve (obtained from the
Hessian matrix) and the corresponding critical point can be used to help the experimental data correlation process.
171:
For binary solutions, the thermodynamic criterion which defines the spinodal curve is that the second derivative of free energy with respect to density or some composition variable is zero.
195:. As such, the spinodal does not exist in real systems, but one can extrapolate to infer the existence of a pseudospinodal that exhibits critical-like behavior such as
