Several ternary oxides with industrial applications, but also interesting for basic research, have been studied recently at room temperature under high-pressure conditions using synchrotron powder x-ray diffraction. In this article, part of these experiments will be summarized. The studied materials include zircon-type vanadates and scheelite-type tungstates as well as other oxides related to them. Several pressure-induced structural phase transitions that take place in these compounds under compression will be here described. In addition, the determination of the crystal structure of the high-pressure phases will be discussed. The reported studies have also allowed the accurate determination of the axial and bulk compressibility of the studied materials. The influence of experimental conditions on the reported results will be finally commented.
