摘      要：In this paper, we study the phase transition and classification of critical points in multistability chemical reaction systems. Referring to the spirit of Landau s theory of phase transitions, this paper deals with the varied transitions and critical phenomena in multistable chemical systems. It is demonstrated that the higher the order of the multistability, the wider the variety of phase transitions will be. A classification scheme of critical points according to the stability criterion and the thermodynamic potential continuity is suggested. It is useful for us to study critical phenomena especially in the non-equilibrium systems including the multi-Stable chemical ones.
