Laser and electron-beam initiation of the combustion process of energy-saturated composite films were studied. Composites were produced from porous silicon, a fluorine-containing polymer, and graphene. It is shown that the impact of a high-current electron beam of nanosecond duration does not lead to the excitation of the combustion process. Moreover, the process of film combustion during laser initiation is accompanied in some cases by the appearance of a zone of secondary flame and white smoke. Keywords: porous silicon, energy-saturated composite, laser initiation, electron-beam initiation, combustion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
