The aim of the presented investigation is the development of technology for production of novel, halogen-free, environmentally safe, highly efficient fire-extinguishing powders based on local mineral raw materials and elaboration of new types, environmentally safe, fire-protective materials on the basis of such fire-extinguishing powders, which in composite materials are functioning, as efficient inert flame retardants. The technology for production of these materials differs from the conventional production. Fire-extinguishing powders will be produced by mechanical blending of local mineral raw materials, which do not require modification with expensive halogencontaining hydrofobizing additives, making the extinguishing materials far cheaper than imported analogues. Experimental data confirm that the developed fire-extinguishing powders are characterized by high inhibition properties an.. View More»
