F-500 Micelle Encapsulator Fire Suppression Agent
F-500 is a specially engineered chemical that is used for a wide variety of fire suppression, vapor suppression, and bioremediation applications. Below are some of the features and benefits that F-500 provides the end user.
Key Features and Benefits
| Feature |
|
Benefit |
| Fast Extinguishment |
|
 |
Saves lives (victims and firefighters) |
|
Less property damage |
|
Reduces insurance claim amounts and premiums |
|
| Reduced Surface Tension |
|
|
Provides greater surface coverage and deeper penetration into
pores of Class A materials |
|
Facilitates spreading of F-500 molecules in Class B materials |
|
| Rapid Heat Reduction |
|
|
Fast extinguishment of Class A and Class B fuels |
|
Firefighter can approach fire more safely |
|
Reduces threat of spontaneous reignition |
|
Reduces combustion threat of surrounding infrastructure |
|
| Enhanced Burnback Resistance |
|
|
When F-500 and water are applied at the proper rates, firefighters
can walk through fuel with no threat of reignition |
|
Penetration of F-500 into pores of Class A materials severely
inhibits the fire from restarting |
|

| Vapor Suppression (reduces vapors below
the Lower Explosive Limit) |
|
|
Eliminates the risk of explosion by sparks from extrication
equipment |
|
Safer highway fuel spills |
|
Reduces explosive vapors in confined space |
|
Faster Tank Degassing / Tank Turnaround |
|
| Bioremediation Aid |
|
|
Speeds breakdown of hydrocarbons by increasing the surface
area allowing naturally occurring microorganisms to digest the
hydrocarbons |
|
Reduces toxicity level of hydrocarbons |
|
