Abstract
The lattice fluid model with specific interactions was applied to the ternary system Poly-L-lactic-acid (PLLA)-dioxane-water. Model parameters were determined by fitting experimental data. The as-obtained parameters were used to calculate the complete phase diagram. An experimental apparatus for cloud point measurements, which is under construction, is presented.
