Lines of liquidus and solidus appear in the phase diagrams of binary solid solutions, as well as in eutectic systems away from the invariant point.

When distinction is irrelevant

For pure elements or compounds, e.g. pure copper, pure water, etc. the liquidus and solidus are at the same temperature, and the term melting point may be used.

There are also some mixtures which melt at a particular temperature, known
