“…In fact the contact between water molecules and aluminum particles lasts the time of the combustion (from 20 to 70 ms); whereas the time of sorption equilibrium is about 2 h. This method allows the verification of the inhibiting effect of water on materials ignition without modifying the physicochemical structure of the dust. It should be noted that the promotive effect of water vapour on ignition temperature of combustible mixture has been observed since a long time (Jones & Seaman, 1934).…”
