Incongruity

System in which the two components form a compound with an incongruent melting point. In this system the compound formed... 

The first system is characterized by a partial miscibility of the liquid phases, the second one is instable with incongruent melting points at -54...

These patterns illustrate the incongruity that exists between mathematically precise notions of entropy (see below), or the amount of disorder in a system, and intuitive notions of complexity. 

Fig. 12.1 Three patterns illustrating the incongruity between mathematically precise notions of entropy and intuitive notions of complexity. Whereas pattern (b) is intuitively the most complex, it has neither the highest (c) or lowest (a) entropy. See text.

You got it, Mr. Conti said, taking position, when I asked him to make me a martini. He had also incongruously, but kindly, set out bialys and butter for breakfast. 

Corrosion may be especially rapid under existing deposits where amine is absent and the pH level is lower than that of the bulk water, as incongruent phosphate effects and concentrating effects further contribute to the problem.

Melting Point 2870°C (decomposes by melting incongruently) WC has a large stability domain but reacts with W or W Debye Temperature 493K... 

The crystal growth of metal borides by gas-phase methods permits preparation of products at moderate T (1000-1500°C). This is an important advantage since most borides melt at high T (ca. 3000°C), which makes their crystal growth from melts difficult. In addition, the gas-phase methods lead to the formation of single crystals and solid films of incongruently melting borides. 

The production of boride single crystals from their own melt presents difficulties because they have high mp and melt incongruently. The crystallization of borides...
