Solubilisation is the process by which a substance, known as a solute, is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. This process involves the breaking of intermolecular forces between solute particles and the formation of new intermolecular forces between the solute and the solvent molecules. The extent to which a solute dissolves in a solvent is determined by several factors, including the nature of the solute and solvent, temperature, pressure, and the presence of other substances.

The solubility of a solute in a solvent is typically expressed in terms of the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure. This is known as the solubility limit or saturation point. When the solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature and pressure, it is said to be saturated. If the solution contains less than the maximum amount of solute, it is said to be unsaturated. If the solution contains more than the maximum amount of solute, it is said to be supersaturated.

The process of solubilisation is important in many areas of science and industry, including chemistry, biology, and materials science. For example, in chemistry, solubilisation is used to prepare solutions for chemical analysis and reactions. In biology, solubilisation is used to study the properties of biological molecules, such as proteins and nucleic acids. In materials science, solubilisation is used to prepare materials with specific properties, such as polymers and ceramics.
