ABSTRACT:
An efficient fire extinguishing agent is proposed which is suitable for extinguishing fire of a burning metal such as a magnesium powder and used, for example, as a filling of fire extinguishers with stability over a long period of time for storage without decreasing the flowability and ejectability from the extinguisher. The fire extinguishing agent is a powdery blend of (a) 95 to 70% by weight of a high-purity boron oxide powder having a specified high B.sub.2 O.sub.3 purity and a low water content and (b) 5 to 30% by weight of an inorganic powder of spherical particle configuration. Glass beads of a specified particle diameter and silica-alumina-based hollow microspheres serve as the inorganic powder.
