In this paper the concepts "equilibrium" and "reversibility" are examined from the standpoint of the number of independent variables which define a thermodynamic system. The endeavor is made to show that the number of independent variables which are selected is crucial to the basic concepts as well

The object of this study was to analyze the complex degradation history of a heatresistant epoxy resin laminate using the mechanical-chemical equation of state. A further object was to determine if weight-loss measurements at elevated temperatures could be used to predict long-term rupture strength.
A new procedure for the derivation of the equation of state in models of adsorption from solution is developed. Based on thermodynamics a simple relation between the surface pressure and the chemical potential of one reference solvent state is established, making the calculation of the state equatio
