The perturbed hard-sphere-chain (PHSC) equation of state for copolymer systems is used to calculate liquid-liquid equilibria for binary solvent/copolymer systems that exhibit simultaneously an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) and a lower critical solution temperature. The PHSC equation of
