| Composition
: |
Based
on Ternary Eutectic Chloride with the addition of high melting
compounds. |
Extinguishing
Properties and
Effects : |
With
fire involving metals, the extinguishant must be applied gently.
This special technique is achieved by applying the extinguishant via an
applicator which is screwed on
to a dry chemical nozzle. Powder
blanket adheres immediately and remains impermeable to air. A
dense crust is formed through the influence of high temperature.
