What is the difference between an azeotropic mixture and a near-azeotropic mixture?

What will be an ideal response?


An azeotropic mixture will not separate into its component refrigerants and will have specific boiling and condensing points. A near-azeotropic mixture can and will separate readily into its component refrigerants. This causes a range of condensing/boiling points called "glide." These near-azeotropic mixtures must be removed from their container or vessel in the liquid form to prevent "fractionation."
