Abstract: Based on the exact solution of the eigenvalue problem for the Uq[sl(2|1)] vertex model built from alternating 3-dimensional fundamental and dual representations by means of the algebraic Bethe ansatz we investigate the ground state and low energy excitations of the corresponding mixed superspin chain for deformation parameter q=exp(igamma/2). The model has a line of critical points with central charge c=0 and continua of conformal dimensions grouped into sectors with gamma-dependent lower edges for 0legamma<pi/2. The finite size scaling behaviour is consistent with a low energy effective theory consisting of one compact and one non-compact bosonic degree of freedom. In the 'ferromagnetic' regime pi<gammale2pi the critical theory has c=1 with exponents varying continuously with the deformation parameter. Spin and charge degrees of freedom are separated in the finite size spectrum which coincides with that of the Uq[osp(2|2)] spin chain. In the intermediate regime pi/2<gamma<pi the finite size scaling of the ground state energy depends on the deformation parameter.
