## Abstract

We give an overview exploring the role of kinetics in multicomponent mixtures. Compared to the most commonly studied binary (single species plus solvent) case, multicomponent fluids show a rich interplay between kinetics and thermodynamics due to the possibility of fractionation, interdiffusion of mixture components and collective motion. This leads to a competition between multiple timescales that change depending on the underlying kinetics. At high densities, crowding effects are relevant and non-equilibrium structures can become long-lived. We present the main approaches for the study of kinetic effects in multicomponents mixtures, including the role of crowding, and explore their consequences for equilibrium and non-equilibrium scenarios. We conclude by identifying the main challenges in the field.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
