  2. ABC dry chemical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABC_dry_chemical

    Dry chemical powder is used on all classes of fires. Dry chemical powder puts out the fire by coating the burning material with a thin layer of dust, thereby separating the fuel from the oxygen in the air. The powder also works to interrupt the chemical reaction of fire, so these extinguishers are extremely effective at putting out the fire.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple-K

    Purple-K, also known as PKP, is a dry-chemical fire suppression agent used in some dry chemical fire extinguishers. [1] It is the second most effective dry chemical in fighting class B (flammable liquid) fires after Monnex (potassium allophanate), and can be used against some energized electrical equipment fires (USA class C fires). [2]

    A fire extinguisher is a handheld active fire protection device usually filled with a dry or wet chemical used to extinguish or control small fires, often in emergencies.

  7. Fire retardant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_retardant

    A fire retardant is a substance that is used to slow down or stop the spread of fire or reduce its intensity. This is commonly accomplished by chemical reactions that reduce the flammability of fuels or delay their combustion. [1] [2] Fire retardants may also cool the fuel through physical action or endothermic chemical reactions.

  8. Bromochloromethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromochloromethane

    Bromochloromethane or methylene bromochloride and Halon 1011 is a mixed halomethane.It is a heavy low-viscosity liquid with refractive index 1.4808.. Halon 1011 was invented for use in fire extinguishers in Germany during the mid-1940s, in an attempt to create a less toxic, more effective alternative to carbon tetrachloride.

  9. Gaseous fire suppression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaseous_fire_suppression

    Gaseous fire suppression, also called clean agent fire suppression, is the use of inert gases and chemical agents to extinguish a fire. These agents are governed by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard for Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems – NFPA 2001 in the US, with different standards and regulations elsewhere.
