Cartoon of the magic number effect. When the number of valences on one of the components (here 8, green) is a multiple of those on the other (here 4, blue), a small oligomer satisfies all valences and reduces phase separation. When this condition is not satisfied, larger networks of interacting species are formed leading to LLPS.
