Abstract
The quantitative analysis of the morphological transformations in asymmetric and symmetric binary mixtures undergoing the phase separation has been reported. The general features of the bicontinuous morphology evolution have been discussed from the standpoint of the dynamic scaling hypothesis. The method for the quantitative characterization of the percolation transition by calculating the Euler characteristic has been described. It has been shown that the transformation of the bicontinuous morphology into droplets involves formation of the transient "cylindric" morphology composed of highly elongated, disconnected droplets.
