    The authors consider the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation of the form \[ P^{(1)}_\tau+ AP^{(1)} P^{(1)}_\xi+ DP^{(1)}_{\xi\xi}+ BP^{(1)}_{\xi\xi\xi}= 0,\tag{1} \] where \(A= {2\alpha\over K'(u)}\), \(D= {u\over K'(u)}\), \(B= -{u^2\over K'(u)}\), \(K(u)= {\omega^2_p u^2\over c^2- u^2}- \omega^2_0- 2\alpha P_0= 0\). Here \(\omega_p\), \(\omega_0\) are the characteristic frequencies of the problem, \(P_0\approx- {\omega^2_0\over\alpha}\) is the equilibrium value of \(P\); \(\xi=\sigma(z- ut)\), \(\tau= \sigma^3\cdot t\) are the scaled coordinate and time, \(z\) and \(t\) are the real ones; \(c\) is the velocity of light in the system; \(\alpha\) is a coefficient determined by the nonlinear properties of the system. The authors consider (1) beyond the point of phase transition (\(T> T_C\), \(T_C\) is the Curie point) and describe a new class of solutions which have features inherent to dynamical chaos.
