Abstract The phase behavior of the sn ‐1,3‐dipalmitoyl‐2‐oleoylglycerol (PPP‐POP) binary mixture system was studied by powder X‐ray diffraction with synchrotron radiation and by differential scanning calorimetry. The results showed that the immiscible phases were observed in metastable and in the most stable forms. In particular, synchrotron X‐ray diffraction enabled us to reveal the monotectic nature of α as a kinetic phase behavior. The equilibrium phase diagram of the PPP‐POP mixture is divided into two regions. In POP concentration ratios below 40%, solid‐state transformation from α to β was observed, indicating that the α‐β transition of PPP was promoted in the presence of POP. By contrast, the polymorphic transition proceeds from α to β through the occurrence of the intermediate β′ form at POP concentration ratios above 50%.
