Applications/Examples of results
Water-based film-forming foam is a synthetic extinguishing agent made by combining water, hydrocarbon-based surfactants, fluorinated surfactants, solvents, stabilizers, and other components, and is used for applications involving gasoline, diesel, aviation fuel, crude oil, and petrochemical solvents. For polar solvents such as alcohols and ketones, alcohol-resistant foam (AR-AFFF) with added polymer components is used. By application, the main markets include petrochemical plants, offshore facilities, crude oil tanks, military installations, and airports, and the products are subdivided into concentrations of 1%, 3%, and 6%, as well as standard AFFF and AR-AFFF.
