We study recently developed chiral mean field models under extreme conditions of temperature (T ) and density (ρ). The thermal vacuum phase transition (ρ = 0 and high T ), present in the Walecka model, also appears in some of the proposed models. A hadronic phase transition to a quark-gluon plasma phase (QGP) at ρ = 0 is also shown in the T-ρ phase diagram. From this diagram we see that, at ρ = 0, the critical temperature T c is not sensitive to the employed hadronic model whereas when ρ increases and T decreases the hadronic-QGP two-phase transition becomes strongly model dependent. Particular cases of the models at zero temperature and high density are discussed.
