Information on phase diagrams and thermodynamic properties of 30 simple and transition metals has been analyzed with the use of multi-phase equation of state (EOS). The comparison has been done with theoretical calculations of thermodynamic properties of solid, liquid, plasma, evaluations of the critical point and with results of static and dynamic experiments. The major attention has been paid to revealing of positions of high pressure melting and evaporating. We used direct temperature measurements which allow one to obtaine the pressure-temperature phase diagram and indirect information on phase transitions resulting from shock-wave experiments. Conclusions are made for high-pressure melting and evaporating, as well as for obtained parameters of the critical point.
