ABSTRACT:
A set of tropodegradable agents for extinguishment of fires, suppression of explosions, and inertion against fires and explosions is disclosed. The agents are characterized by high efficiency, cleanliness, and short atmospheric lifetimes. The latter property is essential and results in a low ozone depletion potential (ODP) and a low global warming potential (GWP). The agents are halocarbons or mixtures comprised of halocarbons that have at least one of the following features: carbon-to-carbon double bonds and/or carbon-to-iodine bonds. Specifically disclosed are the two families of agents: (I) bromine-containing alkenes and (2) iodocarbons.
