2. List of fire-retardant materials - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fire-retardant...

   Fire-retardant materials should not be confused with fire-resistant materials. A fire resistant material is one which is designed to resist burning and withstand heat. An example of a fire-resistant material is one which is used in bunker gear worn by firefighters to protect them from the flames of a burning building.

3. Fire-safe polymers - Wikipedia

   Figure 2: Different fire-resistant polymers made with aromatic heterocycles. Polymers made with aromatic monomers have a tendency to condense into chars upon combustion, decreasing the amount of flammable gas that is released. Syntheses of these types of polymers generally employ prepolymers which are further reacted to form the fire-resistant ...

4. Chemical storage - Wikipedia

   Flammable solvent cabinets are produced from specialized wood or metal able to resist fire for at least 30 minutes. [5] For example, a flammable liquid is any liquid that has a flash point lower than 93 °C (199 °F). Corrosive storage cabinets are designed for storing corrosive or oxidizing liquids.

   Other chemical retardants are capable of rendering class A material and Class B fuels non-flammable and extinguishing class A, class B, and some class D fires. [citation needed] Fire retardant slurries dropped from aircraft are normally applied ahead of a wildfire to prevent ignition, while fire suppression agents are used to extinguish fires.

6. Fire blanket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_blanket

   A fire blanket is a safety device designed to extinguish incipient (starting) fires. It consists of a sheet of a fire retardant material that is placed over a fire in order to smother it. Small fire blankets, such as for use in kitchens and around the home are usually made of glass fiber and sometimes kevlar , and are folded into a quick ...

7. Hypoxic air technology for fire prevention - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxic_air_technology_for...

   Sensors continuously measure the levels of oxygen. These sensors provide real-time data to the control system, ensuring that the oxygen level is reduced to a safe level for fire prevention without compromising human safety. Distribution Network: This network delivers nitrogen-enriched air into the protected environment(s).
