Provides data on miscibility and evaporation characteristics of some water-solvent combinations. Miscibility diagrams are designed to be useful in the selection of solvent systems for water-based coatings, these are diagrams of selected ternary blends comprised of water, a completely water-soluble solvent, and another solvent. The evaporation rates and residual compositions of remaining liquid during evaporation for selected binary water-solvent systems are also provided. -- AATA
