The vapor pressure as a function of temperature of several commercial grades of red phosphorus and a specially prepared crystalline sample has been measured. For crystalline red P we obtain a heat of sublimation, AHs= 31.9• 1 kcal/mole. The commercial grades yield vapor pressures, which above 450~ are described by the equation In p=--(10.8• 0.4)• IO~/T+(16.5 _ 0.6). The sublimation equilibrium of red P can be utilized for controlling phosphorus pressures, p> 10 atm, with a reproducibility of 10% if commercial P of at least 5N purity is used. Measurements of the pVT relation of phosphorus vapor in the regimes 800~~ T~ 1400~ and 3 arm~ p~ 35 arm reveal deviations up to 10% from ideal gas behavior. Excellent accuracy in describing the behavior of phosphorus vapor is obtained when van der Waals equation is used in conjunction with the critical data of Marckwald and Helmholz and a critical coefficient of 0.375 for calculation of both the covolume and the interaction parameter. Consideration of the pressure dependence of the equilibrium constant K, for the reaction P4: 2P2 yielded approximate values for the fugacity constant at 1000 and ll00~ The pTx relation at the liquidus in the vicinity of stoichiometric InP for indiumrich and phosphorus-rich compositions were established by simultaneous vapor pressure and DTA measurements. The melting point of stoichiometric InP is 1335 ___ I~ and the corresponding equilibrium phosphorus pressure is 27.5• 1 atm. Tx liquidus data calculated with the assumption of ideal behavior of the liquid are in good agreement with our experimental data. Interpretation of the liquidus pressure data yields values of the standard enthalpies and entropies at 298~
