  1. Bancroft point

    A Bancroft point is the temperature where an azeotrope occurs in a Mixture binary system . Although Vapor liquid equilibrium vapor liquid azeotropy is impossible for binary systems which are rigorously described by Raoult s law , for real systems, azeotropy is inevitable at temperatures where the saturation vapor pressure of the components are equal. Such a temperature is called a Bancroft point. However, not all binary systems exhibit such a point. Also, a Bancroft point must lie in the valid temperature ranges of the Antoine equation . Bancroft point is named after Wilder Dwight Bancroft .

  1. Bancroft rule

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Context date October 2009 The Bancroft rule states The phase matter phase in which an emulsifier is more soluble constitutes the continuous phase. It was named after Wilder Dwight Bancroft , an American physical chemist. In all of the typical emulsion s, there are tiny particles discrete phase suspended in a liquid continuous phase . In an oil in water emulsion, oil is the discrete phase, while water is the continuous phase. What the Bancroft rule states is that contrary to common sense, what makes an emulsion oil in water or water in oil is not the relative percentages of oil or water, but which phase the emulsifier is more soluble in. So even though there may be a formula that s 60 oil and 40 water, if the emulsifier chosen is more soluble in water, it will create an oil in water system. There are some exceptions to Bancroft s rule, but it s a very useful rule of thumb for most systems. The Hydrophilic lipophilic balance HLB of a surfactant can be used in order to determine whether it s a good choice for the desired emulsion or not. In Oil in Water emulsions use emulsifying agents that are more soluble in water than in oil High HLB surfactants . In Water in Oil emulsions use emulsifying agents that are more soluble in oil than in water Low HLB surfactants . Bancroft s rule suggests that the type of emulsion is dictated by the emulsifier and that the emulsifier should be soluble in the continuous phase. This empirical observation can be rationalised by considering the interfacial tension at the oil surfactant and water surfactant interfaces.
