Hysteresis vs Syneresis - What's the difference?

hysteresis | syneresis |

As nouns the difference between hysteresis and syneresis

is that hysteresis is a property of a system such that an output value is not a strict function of the corresponding input, but also incorporates some lag, delay, or history dependence, and in particular when the response for a decrease in the input variable is different from the response for an increase. For example, a thermostat with a nominal setpoint of 75° might switch the controlled heat source on when the temperature drops below 74°, and off when it rises above 76° while syneresis is an alternative spelling of synaeresis.
