Almost two decades ago there were discovered new autowave selfpropagation phenomena in the cryo‐chemical reactions at investigating of chemical solid phase transformations near absolute zero of temperatures. Such an autowave regime is observed for different classes of chemical reactions (polymerisation, copolymerisation and also hydrocarbon halogenation, hydro‐halogenation etc). The chemical transformations studied at the such low temperatures 4–77 K proceeded with so great rates that they can be compared only with the fastest high‐temperature combustion reactions known in chemistry. It allows to advance a principally new autowave conception of the matter chemical activity in solid state. The essentially non‐Arrenius conception is based on the assumption that a mechanical energy accumulated in solid matrix can be transformated to the chemical forms.
