High-pressure Phase Diagrams and Critical Properties of Fluid Mixtures... 

In Section 2 the high-pressure phase diagrams and the critical phenomena were briefly discussed for gas-liquid, liquid-liquid, and gas-gas equilibria, and the discussion in Section 3 gave evidence that the hypothesis of continuous transitions between all types of two-phase equilibrium in fluid mixtures is useful in understanding the great variety of phase relationships and in giving a certain order to many different types of critical behaviour and phase diagrams in fluid mixtures.
