Entrainer used in azeotropic distillation should
form a low boiling azeotrope with one of the constituents of the mixture.
form a new azeotrope of low relative volatility with one of the constituents of the mixture.
have high latent heat of vaporisation.
have high viscosity to provide high tray efficiency.

In case of steam distillation, the steam leaving the liquid is not completely saturated with distillate vapour, because
temperature is less.
total pressure is less.
mixing of steam with the material being vaporised is not so intimate as to result in equilibrium condition.
saturated steam is used for steam distillation.
