At the triple point of a substance, the solid, liquid, and vapour (gaseous) phases of that substance coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium.
The triple point is a unique specific temperature and pressure for a substance, distinct from the melting point (solid-liquid equilibrium) or boiling point (liquid-vapour equilibrium) which vary with pressure.
