FILMOPOL 1N is a high-quality multipurpose film forming foam concentrate liquid, usable at 1% on class B hydrocarbon and 1% on polar solvents fires.

Description

Following is the detailed descriptions of FILMOPOL l 1N

  • AR-AFFF (Alcohol-Resistant Aqueous Film-Forming Foam) features:
    • On hydrocarbon fire, it forms a thin aqueous film forming which spreads rapidly above fuel surface avoiding contact with oxygen.
    • On polar solvent fire, selected compounds avoid foam destruction by polar fuels. The water content of the foam produces a cooling effect
    • Low viscosity – Newtonian solution (liquid)
    • Induction rate: 1% on hydrocarbon and 1% on polar solvent fire
  • Multi-purpose:
    • efficient on class B hydrocarbon fuels (crude oil, gasoline, kerosene…), polar solvents (alcohol, ketone, ethers…), and class A fires
    • Usable at low expansion
    • Usable with fresh, sea, and brackish water
    • Freeze-protected
    • Easily biodegradable
    • Formulated with latest short-chain C6 fluorosurfactants
  • Fire suppression on:
    • storage tanks
    • bund
    • process areas
    • loading racks
    • power stations
    • airports
    • marine terminals

Standard

Following are the standards:

  • EN1568 -3 and -4 version 2018 certified
  • GESIP qualified

Benefits

Following are the benefits:

  • Fast fire extinguishment and long burnback resistance performances relating to EN1568 V2018 standard ratings
  • Newtonian solution (liquid): easily proportioned using all foam equipment
  • Versatile foam: stock only one type of foam concentrate for several risks
  • Increase fire fighter autonomy: diluted at 1% instead of 3%, you use 3x less foam concentrate to produce the same quantity of foam solution
  • Require smaller storage tanks and set-up space

Contains no PFOS or PFOA fluorocompounds
