Metal–Fluorocarbon Pyrolants. XV: Combustion of two Ytterbium–Halocarbon Formulations

Ernst-Christian Koch,Volker Weiser, Evelin Roth, Sebastian Knapp, Joost van Lingen and Jacco Moorhoff Abstract: Binary pyrolants based on ytterbium and either polytetrafluoroethylene or hexachloroethane yield a broad stable combustion regime with intense luminous flames. Combustion temperatures have been determined spectroscopically for both pyrolant types. The temperature correlates with the burn rate of the pyrolant. The UV-Vis spectra …
