New extinguishing fires burning objects covered with a thin layer of glass Bashny.Net

Scientists of the Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) have developed a new tool to extinguish the fire - specially formulated water-based, water glass, and other components. According to the MOE, which has tested a new tool, it allows you to effectively deal with dangerous fires when the composition falls on the last items are covered by a layer of liquid glass, which foams and prevents further burning and smoldering.

The first test showed the difference in time extinguishing fires. On average, fire, using a new composition, coped with the fire for ten seconds faster.

"For more than ten seconds - a lot or a little? If the area of ​​the fire to increase many times the time difference will also be greater for a few minutes. Probably, and will increase the number of lives saved, "- the deputy chief of the Tomsk region GUMCHS Michael Begun.

While traditional methods of extinguishing fire spend a lot of time to extinguish the flames, lower the temperature and ultimately extinguish the fire. The new solution makes it possible to achieve results quickly - only one or two irrigations and the composition starts. It adheres to the surface, foamed, then it stops access of oxygen. Extinguished and forgotten.

Earlier, Deputy Rector for Research and Innovation TPU Alex Tshe news agency reported that the use of the new formulation is safe for the environment and the characteristics of the mixture is such that it can be used to extinguish the fuel, flammable substances, forest fires and others. He added that the development of "ready to implement" and the university is going to look for an investor.
