Abstract: Electric breakdown of a thin film of polypropylene is accompanied by emission of the electromagnetic radiation pulse of about 400 ns duration with a spectrum consisting of three main frequencies. A relationship between the electric resistance of the breakdown channel and observed radiation spectrum is explained.

Keywords: electric breakdown, radiofrequency emission, polypropylene.
