Russian term or phrase: расширяется
С повышением температуры область воспламенения аммиачно-воздушных смесей расширяется и при 100 °С лежит в интервале 14,5÷33,6

Сомневаюсь в выборе варианта для слова "расширяется" в данном контексте.

Спасибо.

neutral  mrrafe: Maybe. "Expands" seems a bit closer to the original root ширять which connotes breadth whereas increase has more tendency to mean amount. But yes, the amount of breadth increases.
