Bivariant equilibrium
When both comp + T can be varied independently without changing the no of phases present
Univariant
Opposite of bivariant
Eutectoid
1 S -> 2 S
Eutectic
1 L -> 2 S
Allotropic transformation
Change in crystal structure (no change in comp)
Invariant equilibrium
The only point of maintaining equilibrium is to change nothing
F = 0
