9. The magnitude of this shift is comparable to the mutual distance between the envelopes of different cylinder types: hence, the choice of equation of state introduces an uncertainty in equilibrium data that is of the same order as that resulting from the composition differences.

12. The multicomponent model uses effective one-component nucleation kinetics, resulting in a Zeldovich factor that is typical for unary nucleation.
