Abstract
On the basis of dimerization kinetics and experimental data on thermal explosion we determine conditions for ignition of tetrafluoroethylene on a hot wall. A mathematical model of nonisothermal polymerization o n a plane wall and in a cavity which takes into account heat removal t o the wall and to the gas phase is proposed. The conditions for explos ion hazard situations are established and expressions for the inductio n time are obtained.
