The liquid–liquid critical point of a solution, which occurs at the critical solution temperature, occurs at the limit of the two-phase region of the phase diagram. In other words, it is the point at which an infinitesimal change in some thermodynamic variable (such as temperature or pressure) leads to separation of the mixture into two ...
Water phase diagram. Y-axis=Pressure in pascals (10 n). X-axis=Temperature in kelvins.

Another type of binary phase diagram is a boiling-point diagram for a mixture of two components, i. e. chemical compounds. For two particular volatile components at a certain pressure such as atmospheric pressure, a boiling-point diagram shows what vapor (gas) compositions are in equilibrium with given liquid compositions depending on ...
Anisimov et al. (2004), [11] without referring to Frenkel, Fisher, or Widom, reviewed thermodynamic derivatives (specific heat, expansion coefficient, compressibility) and transport coefficients (viscosity, speed of sound) in supercritical water, and found pronounced extrema as a function of pressure up to 100 K above the critical temperature.
There are a few key locations on the M-y diagram which are labeled in Figure 6 above developed based on the information in Example 1. The first location of interest is the critical point labeled with y c and M c in Figure 6. The critical point represents the minimum value of the momentum function available for that particular flow per unit ...
At the critical point, (304.1 K and 7.38 MPa (73.8 bar)), there is no difference in density, and the 2 phases become one fluid phase. Thus, above the critical temperature a gas cannot be liquefied by pressure. At slightly above the critical temperature (310 K), in the vicinity of the critical pressure, the line is almost vertical.
English: A modification of File:Phase-diag.svg with an adjusted water solid-liquid coexistence: A typical phase diagram for a single-component material, exhibiting solid, liquid and gaseous phases. The solid green line shows the usual shape of the liquid-solid phase line. The dotted green line shows the anomalous behavior of water.
For instance, in supercooled water, two types of local structures have been predicted: a low-density local configuration (LD) and a high-density local configuration (HD), so above the critical pressure, the liquid is composed by a majority of HD local structure, while below the critical pressure a higher fraction of LD local configurations is ...
