Phase-separating droplets exhibit self-generated motion depending on the composition of the constituent solution of a biocompatible material, aqueous two phase system For higher concentrations than the equilibrium concentration, a droplet moved unidirectionally even in a homogeneous concentration field For lower concentrations, the droplets hardly moved The translational motion we observed is an effect of convection caused by Korteweg force
