Abstract

The thermodynamic model of hysteresis in phase transitions based on the regular solution theory, previously developed, was applied to the solid phases of C1H4 and C2H4. The width and height of the hysteresis loops for these systems were calculated and compared with the experimental data; agreement was satisfactory.

Keywords: thermodynamics, metastability, phase transitions, solid state
