Abstract: | The self-propagating combustion reaction between tungsten and potassium dichromate has been studied by differential thermal analysis and temperature profile analysis. Two reaction stages have been distinguished in the combustion where the rate of temperature rise is ? 105 K min?1: in the first potassium dichromate is reduced by tungsten to form potassium chromate and in the second stage the potassium chromate reacts with more tungsten to form potassium tungstate and chromic oxide. |
