We show that the trajectories of a conserved phase-field model with memory are compact in the space of continuous functions and, for an exponential relaxation kernel, we establish the convergence of solutions to a single stationary state as time goes to infinity. In the latter case, we also estimate the rate of decay to equilibrium.
