BIOex HYDROPOL – Fluorosynthetic versatile AR foam concentrate effective on hydrocarbon and polar solvent fires

BIOex HYDROPOL fire-fighting foam concentrates have been developed to control fire risks on liquids miscible with water or not. They are therefore effective on hydrocarbon and polar solvent fires.

Depending on the equipment used, BIOex HYDROPOL can be used to generate Low, Medium or High Expansion foam.

For better effectiveness we recommend the application of HYDROPOL fire-fighting foam concentrate indirectly on the burning liquid by using an adjacent vertical surface so that it pours down its surface. An application using Medium expansion is also possible to spread the foam evenly and without contamination. We then refer to agentle application.

HYDROPOL foam concentrate’s versatile AR property consists in forming a protective gel film on polar solvent type inflammable liquids to smother the fire as would a fire blanket.

This film also provides excellent resistance to re-ignition.
