Use of a surfactant comprising at least one substituted or unsubstituted carbohydrate or carbohydrate derivative and at least one oligosilane as an addition to fire-extinguishing foams and/or concentrates. The present invention relates to the field of fire-extinguishing foams or foam concentrates.Particularly in fires of larger liquid amounts of organic chemicals such as fuels usually special foam concentrates are added to the extinguishing water. These have surfactant properties and in contrast to conventional fire-extinguishing foams enable the independent wetting of the surface of the burning material. Therefore, such so-called AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foams) extinguishing foams as a specific feature form a water film on the surface of the burning liquid. The thus resulting vapor barrier makes it difficult that the flammable liquid transits into the gas phase and thus maintains the fire or forms gas mixtures capable of ignition or explosion. The characteristic wettability of the AFFF foams also allows the foam to slide on the surface of the burning liquid, such that even positions are attained onto which the extinguishing foam cannot be applied directly. In addition, the foam surface closes self-dependently after disturbance (e.g. by falling objects). Furthermore, the film even flows and acts in areas which are not attained directly by foam.For a long time perfluorooctyl ...

POST-FOAMING COMPOSITION FOR PROTECTION AGAINST FIRE AND/OR HEAT

Inert and hydrocarbon gases, such as propellant gases, maintain a pressure in a bottle to ensure that a formed composition can be dispensed to an intended destination. The carrier releases soluble hydrocarbon gases and the water drops dissolve inert gases, so the liquid is inflated and creates upstanding foam. This foam maintains the texture and water content up to 6-24 hours, depending on the ratio of the fire-resistant component. As heat reaches the foam, the heat-resistant silicate component becomes activated. Strong heat causes evaporation of the moisture of the carrier, and then the bound water of the silicates evaporates from the foam, with a honeycomb-structure left behind which is a good thermal insulator and is able to protect the object. Above approximately 350° C., a ceramic protective layer forms, while the water content of the foam inside the foam migrates outwards towards the dry crust. 1.

SILOXANE-CONTAINING FIRE EXTINGUISHING FOAM

The invention relates to fire extinguishing foams or concentrates thereof, these comprising a carbohydrate-containing siloxane surfactant. 1. A fire-extinguishing foam concentrate , comprising a surface-active agent containing at least one substituted or unsubstituted carbohydrate or carbohydrate derivative and at least one oligosiloxane.3. The concentrate according to or , wherein C is a di- , tri- or tetrasiloxane.4. The concentrate according to any one of to , wherein A is a mono- di- and trisaccharide , a saccharic acid , amino sugar or cyclitol or an ether , ester , amide or thioester of these compounds.5. A use of a surface-active agent , containing at least one substituted or unsubstituted carbohydrate derivative and at least one oligosiloxane , as additive to fire-extinguishing foams and/or foam concentrates. The present invention relates to the field of fire-extinguishing foams and/or foam concentrates.In particular, when fires comprising major quantities of burning liquids that contain organic chemicals must be extinguished, e.g. fuels, special foaming agents are usually added to the extinguishing water. These agents have surface-active properties and, contrary to conventional extinguishing foam agents, allow for independent wetting of the surface of the burning material. This is why, as a special property, such extinguishing foams, which are so-called Aqueous Film Forming Foams (AFFF), form a water film on the surface of the burning liquid. The resulting vapor barrier makes it more difficult for combustible liquids to change to their gaseous phase and thereby continue to feed the fire or result in flammable and/or explosive gaseous mixtures. Furthermore, the characteristic wetting capacities of AFFF foam allow the foam to glide on the surface of the burning liquid, thereby making it possible for the foam to reach places where the extinguishing foams cannot be directly applied. Moreover, if the surface of the foam area has been disrupted (for example, ...

Firestop material

The invention relates to a firestop material which is made from a polymer foam, such as a polyurethane foam, containing flame-retardant means. The inventive firestop material is characterised in that (i) the flame-retardant means comprise means which are designed to form a charred layer on the surface of the foam under the effect of an increase in the temperature of the material resulting from a fire and (ii) said flame-retardant means are supplemented with at least one inorganic-type flame retardant. The invention also relates to a chemical composition which, after expansion and drying, is intended to form one such firestop material, as well as to the use of one such firestop material.

Firestop material

The invention relates to a firestop material consisting of a polymer foam, notably a polyurethane foam, containing flame-retardant means. This firestop material is characterized in that the flame-retardant means consist of means designed to form a charred layer on the foam surface, under the effect of a rise in the temperature of the material resulting from a fire, and are supplemented by at least one inorganic type flame retardant. The invention furthermore relates to a chemical composition intended, after expansion and drying, to form such a firestop material, and to a use of such a firestop material.

Novel amidoamine oxides

AMIDOAMINE OXIDES OF THE FORMULA RF-CO-N(-Y)-R-Q WHEREIN RF IS A PERFLUOROALKYL GROUP OR A POLYFLUOROISOALKOXYALKYL GROUP; Y IS HYDROGEN OR A LOWER ALKYL GROUP; R IS A LOWER ALKYLENE RADICAL OR A DIRECT BOND BETWEEN NITROGEN AND A CARBON IN Q AND Q IS SELECTED FROM CERTAIN ALIPHATIC CYKCLOALIPHATIC AND HETEROCYCLIC AROMATIC RADICALS CONTAINING AN AMINE OXIDE GROUP.

High-efficiency aqueous film-forming foam extinguishing agent

本发明涉及一种高效水成膜泡沫灭火剂。该高效水成膜泡沫灭火剂主要由水、表面活性剂、成膜剂和耐水微胶囊组成，耐水微胶囊在灭火剂中的质量分数为10‑30％；耐水微胶囊由无机盐芯材和包裹无机盐芯材的耐水壁材组成；无机盐芯材受热分解产生阻燃气体。本发明中，采用微胶囊对无机盐芯材包裹后，无机盐与水隔离，不会影响灭火剂原液的稳定性，可以较大比例加入，灭火时，微胶囊受热分解释放出大量阻燃气体，可以大大提高灭火剂的灭火性能。
