I'm thinking to add phospates, corrosion inhibitors, organic acids, some inorganic compounds and glycol in to my agent. But without surfactants I've got concerns about the extingusihing capacity.
Do you agree to my concerns ?
If not what should I change in order to increase suppression capacity ?
Is there a way to produce more ecofriendly and human safe non foaming agent ?
Thank you for your ideas

Hello, we are working on the study of water dispersion in case of falling from an aircraft that extinguishes forest fires, we would like to know as much information as possible about extinguishing forest fires from the air, mathematical and visual models used to describe fire extinguishers. We would like to understand of which software we could create a visual model that will describe the process of extinguishing a forest fire, taking into account all the necessary parameters and factors.

Answer
Hi Canberk Usta,
You may need Class B & C type fire extinguishing agents.
I would recommend you to have AFFF at 3% concentration. For this you need pressurized foam dispensing extinguisher unit or
CO2 extinguisher which may be readily available at your place.
Since you are working on water mist, I hope you may keep these extinguishers as standby.
Another option is the classical multi-purpose extinguisher with DCP of Mono Ammonium Phosphate which is suitable for ABC classes of fire.

I want to apply permanent fire retardant/proof finish, for flash fire, in garment form. Could anyone suggest me for the same.

Answer
Thanks Dr. Roth Phylaktou for your valuable inputs. By the word fire proof I wanted to mean ignition resistance, I completely agree with you on this. Another problem is these ignition resistance chemicals make the fabric hydrophobic in nature. We want the fabric hydrophilic for better comfort. Could you give any suggestion on this? Thanks Manas

This is specifically in regards to fire instructors - those that undergo heat exposure numerous times per week. I am not aware of any in the UK but hopefully there may be some work completed elsewhere in the world.
Thanks
