For the polymorphic transformation of porous graphite in the shock, the previously proposed model linking the process of graphite phase transition with a change in the elastic energy of a substance has been tested. It is shown that the model plausibly describes the experimental results outside the transition zone in a fairly wide range of changes in the porosity of samples with their different initial structure. It is discussed how the model under consideration changes the currently existing ideas about the thermodynamics of the polymorphic transition of matter in a shock wave. Keywords: polymorphism, shock wave, porosity, graphite, diamond, phase transition.
