  2. Firefighting foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefighting_foam

    Firefighting foam is a foam used for fire suppression. Its role is to cool the fire and to coat the fuel, preventing its contact with oxygen, thus achieving suppression of the combustion. Firefighting foam was invented by the Moldovan engineer and chemist Aleksandr Loran in 1902. [1] The surfactants used must produce foam in concentrations of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airport_crash_tender

    Airport crash tenders offer relatively good acceleration for their size and weight, are able to negotiate rough terrain outside the airport area, carry large capacities of water and fire fighting foam, are fitted with powerful high-capacity pumps and water/foam cannons, and are capable of delivering firefighting media over long distances. They ...

  5. 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.

  6. Ballistic foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_foam

    The density of the foam varies with the type being used; Type 2.5 is a white to light amber foam weighing 2.5 pounds per cubic foot, while Type 1.8 is a pale blue to green foam weighing 1.8 pounds per cubic foot. [3] Chopped fiberglass strands embedded in the foam add to the structural integrity through physical support and shrapnel mitigation.
