Question

In an experimental study of membrane-like assemblies of synthetic materials, a phase diagram like that shown was obtained. The two components are dielaidoylphosphatidylcholine (DEL) and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine
IDPU. Explain what happens as a liquid mixture of composition xDel = 0.5 is cooled from 45 °C.
