Abstract
Classical theory of binary nucleation can be drastically in error and even lead to unphysical behavior when applied to strongly non-ideal systems with substantial surface enrichmentâa vivid example is the water/alcohol system, for which BCNT predicts the decrease of nucleation rate with increasing partial pressures.
