2. Spray foam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

   Spray foam insulation or spray polyurethane foam (SPF) is an alternative to traditional building insulation such as fiberglass. A two-component mixture composed of isocyanate and polyol resin comes together at the tip of a gun, and forms an expanding foam that is sprayed onto roof tiles, concrete slabs, into wall cavities, or through holes ...

   Sealection 500 spray foam R-3.8 (RSI-0.67) per inch. [14] a water-blown low density spray polyurethane foam that uses water in a chemical reaction to create carbon dioxide and steam which expands the foam. Flame spread is 21 and smoke developed is 217 which makes it a Class I material (best fire rating). Disadvantages: Is an Isocyanate.

4. Firefighting foam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefighting_foam

   Firefighting foam was invented by the Moldovan engineer and chemist Aleksandr Loran in 1902. [1] The surfactants used must produce foam in concentrations of less than 1%. Other components of fire-retardant foams are organic solvents (e.g., trimethyl-trimethylene glycol and hexylene glycol), foam stabilizers (e.g., lauryl alcohol), and corrosion ...

5. Fire retardant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_retardant

   Class A foam is used as a fire retardant in 2.5 gallon [APW] and [CAFS] extinguishers to contain incipient brush fires and grass fires by creating a fire break. 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.
