A fire extinguishment composition is provided which demonstrates excellent synergistic effects of component materials. The fire extinguishment composition includes an effective amount of a first flame extinguishment agent and an effective amount of a second flame extinguishment agent. The first flame extinguishment agent may be any chemical substance which is capable of extinguishing a flame by decreasing the amount of oxygen concentration in an atmosphere required to support combustion, by decreasing the flame temperature, or combinations of the two mechanisms. The second flame extinguishing agent is any chemical substance which is capable of releasing an effective amount of chemical fragments so as to interfere with a chemical chain mechanism responsible for propagation of the flame. |

Normally liquid, omega-hydrofluoroalkyl ether compounds (and selected mixtures thereof) have a saturated perfluoroaliphatic chain of carbon atoms interrupted by one or more ether oxygen atoms. The compounds can be prepared, e.g., by decarboxylation of the corresponding fluoroalkyl ether carboxylic acids and are useful, e.g., in cleaning and drying applications. |

Cellulosic materials such as paper, wood, cotton, rayon and the like are rendered flame retardant by the intimate association therewith of an effective flame retardant amount of a reaction product of aqueous solution of sulfamic acid and an alkylene oxide e.g., ethylene oxide. Amounts of said reaction product of at least, and preferably in excess of, 0.5 percent by weight are generally effective to render the cellulosic material flame retardant. Preferably the reaction product is rendered neutral before or after application to the cellulosic material in order that the material be rendered noncorrosive and nonirritating in nature. |

The present invention provides a method for extinguishing fire, comprising: (A) preparing a CFC-free and phosphorus-free aqueous fire extinguishing agent using a composition comprising 1-70 wt % of a sulfosuccinic acid ester; 1-30 wt % of a wetting agent; and rest in water; (B) diluting the CFC-free and phosphorus-free aqueous fire extinguishing agent by water to form an aqueous solution; and (C) spraying the aqueous solution to a space containing a burning substance. The present invention not only enhances the wettability and permeability of water, but also increases its affinity to burning substances; accelerates cooling of burning substances; inhibits further combustion; reduces water for firefighting; reduces smoke and emission; mitigates environmental problems caused by haze substances from combustions on the ground and in the air and all possible related health hazards. The CFC-free and phosphorus-free aqueous fire extinguishing agent is biodegradable, non-toxic to human and environment, and easy to use. |
