Abstract
We study morphology of chemically reacting binary mixtures quenched into a thermodynamically unstable region. One of the characteristic features of the system which has not been studied so far is that one can change the average volume fraction during the phase separation process. Computer simulations are carried out in two dimensions to show a rich variety of stable domain morphologies.Keywords
