| 摘要 |
An ignition formulation for an incendiary material is disclosed. The ignition formulation comprises an initiator capable of reacting exothermically with the incendiary material to an extent sufficient to generate a flame when contacted with the incendiary material and a non-aqueous inhibitor capable of slowing the rate of exothermic reaction between the incendiary material and the initiator, thereby providing a delay period between contact of the ignition formulation with the incendiary material and generation of the flame. The non-aqueous inhibitor may be a compound selected from a group comprising, for example, long chain (C5-C12) alcohols, alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes, ethers, esters, ketones, carboxylic acids, aromatic hydrocarbons, organonitrates, diesel, biodiesel, kerosene, modified kerosene and oils. |
