What Does CST Stand For?
CST stands for Critical Solution Temperature
CST, or Critical Solution Temperature, refers to the specific temperature at which two or more components in a mixture fully dissolve to form a homogeneous solution. Below this temperature, the mixture may exhibit distinct phases, while above it, the components interact more completely, affecting solubility, stability, and overall system behavior. CST is a crucial parameter in fields such as chemistry, materials science, and pharmaceuticals, influencing processes like crystallization, formulation development, and even temperature-sensitive reactions.
