Phase separation methods have already been proposed and are in actual use at the laboratory level. Examples of the distribution system include a combination of two types of non-electrolytic polymers, a combination of non-electrolytic polymers and electrolytic polymers, a combination of two types of electrolytic polymers, a polymer and a low-molecular substance. Combinations and the like are known, and they are used in various ways depending on the object to be separated.
