Abstract
Combustion processes are considered for stoichiometric mixtures of niobium with carbon with substitution of some of the carbon black by an activating addition, i.e. fluoroplastic. It is shown that in the presence of a small amouni (0.1–1.0 wt.%) of fluoroplastic the mixture acquires the capacity to burn without using any additional procedures.
