A model has been developed which makes it possible to determine the temperature profile arising in energetic materials containing absorbing inclusions when exposed to laser radiation. The model takes into account the dispersion of these inclusions, the time and intensity of irradiation, and the properties of the energetic materials proper. The proposed model explains the obtained experimental data, according to which the dependence of the threshold for NCP initiation on the content of graphene additives is characterized by the minimum of 3 wt. % graphene. In this case, the threshold of initiation is reduced by about 10 times.
