Abstract

Experimental study of P-T-X phase equilibrium consists of determining the relationships between the temperature, pressure, and composition of the phases that are involved in a particular equilibrium. According to the phase rule, two-phase equilibrium in a binary system is fixed by two independent parameters and in three-phase equilibrium only one parameter can be changed independently without disturbing the state of the system. Consequently, a complete study of the P-T-X phase diagram involves measuring the functional dependences P = P(T,X), T = T(X), and P = P(T).
