Book excerpt: Halons, halogenated hydrocarbons containing bromine, appeared on the scene for fire suppression in the late 1940's following a U.S. Army study to identify effective agents. Halon 1301, bromotrifluoromethane, with its low boiling point is extremely effective in total flooding applications, which rely on the agent completely filling the space to be protected. Halons that exhibit good fire suppression properties but have boiling points closer to room temperature (Halon 1211, bromochlorodifluoromethane, and Halon 2402, dibromotetrafluoroethane) are more suitable for streaming agent which can be directed toward the fire threat as a liquid stream, typically from hand-held units. Interestingly, Halon 1301 was not the most effective total flooding compound on the list. However, Halon 1301 provides a near optimum combination of good fire suppression effectiveness, low toxicity, suitably low boiling point, and a reasonably low density and molecular weight. The combined effectiveness and desirable properties quickly accelerated the use of halons to a wide range of fire suppression applications, including movable platforms such as ships and planes. Dependence on halons increased as more and more fire suppression systems were engineered around these compounds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A one-stop, practical handbook containing all of the current commercial non-halogenated flame retardant technologies as well as experimental systems near commercialization In response to the emphasis on replacing halogenated flame retardants with alternate technologies, this handbook focuses on existing non-halogenated flame retardants and the experimental close-to-production systems that are available today. The Non-Halogenated Flame Retardant Handbook starts with an overview of the regulations and customer perceptions driving non-halogenated flame retardant selections over older halogenated technologies. It then moves on to cover the known major classes of non-halogenated flame retardants, before concluding with the current niche-performing technologies and untried commercial contenders of the future. The Non-Halogenated Flame Retardant Handbook: Takes a practical approach to addressing the narrow subject of non-halogenated flame retardancy—placing more emphasis on flame retardant selection for specific plastics, practical considerations in flame retardant material design, and the various technologies’ strengths and limits Focuses on the proper use of non-halogenated flame retardants, rather than the mechanics of how they work Discusses important future trends in flame retardancy Features sections written by industrial and chemical experts who know how to apply the technology to polymers for fire safety needs

This book was released on 1990 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Production of the currently-used halogenated fire suppressants (halons) will be curtailed because of their contribution to stratospheric ozone depletion. This report, one of the first efforts toward identifying alternatives, documents the rationale for and selection of a set of approximately one hundred gases and/or liquids, covering a range of chemical and physical principles thought to affect flame suppression capability and stratospheric ozone depletion. An Appendix provides extensive information on each of the selected chemicals. Also included in the report are an introduction to combustion concepts, fire suppression mechanisms, test approaches for flame suppression effectiveness, and the mechanisms by which the current commercial halons can decrease stratospheric ozone.
