The influence of Coulomb collisions in a two-component plasma on the nuclear composition and the charge state of accelerated particles is investigated. The main characteristics are the location and value of the two loss maxima. It is shown that the maximum of energy losses to the electron component of the plasma for flares is a high energy threshold which prevents the penetration of a large particle flux into the range greater than approximately 10 MeV/n. The low-energy range up to the maximum is considered in detail. At the preliminary or initial stage of acceleration the nuclear composition of accelerated particles is strongly dependent on their energy losses to the proton component of plasma which prevails at low energies. The conditions under which the equilibrium charge is reached are investigated.
