Distinction is made between solubility curve and binodal curve, setting the stability limit which is defined by the spinodal curve. In addition, it is recommended to carry out the equilibrium data correlation using semiempirical models with a thermodynamic base, over the use of empirical equations. Moreover, the misuse of these empirical equations (Hand, Bachman, Othmer-Tobias, etc.) as proof of data quality or consistency is clarified.engAttribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/EquilibriumLiquid equilibriumLiquidsMixturesMoleculesjournal articleopen accesshttps://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jced.1c00778
