Abstract
Measurements of the coexistence curve of the binary-fluid mixture isobutyri c acid + water with added KCl salt at various concentrations: show an impor tant dependence on the critical temperature and the critical exponent beta. The phase-transition region shifts as a function of the salt concentration . The effective -critical exponent beta* = (0.266-0.293) is neither compati ble with the Ising value beta = 0.325 nor with the Fisher renormalized valu e similar to 0.365.
