Ee. Saidgaliev et al., INFLUENCE OF HALOGENATION OF POLYHETEROARYLENE ON FLAMMABILITY IN AN INFRARED-LASER FIELD, Combustion, explosion, and shock waves, 29(5), 1993, pp. 577-580
The influence of a chemically bound halogen on the ignition induction
period of a polyphenylquinoxaline under conditions of linear pyrolysis
has been studied. A continuous CO2 laser was used as the source of ig
nition. A hyperbolic relation was found between the induction period a
nd the power density. The introduction of a halogen into the polymer s
tructure increased the resistance to ignition.
