Definitions
- the present invention relates to the extinction of fires and more particularly relates to versatile fire-fighting foam concentrates, effective both against hydrocarbon fires and against polar liquids fires.
- the emulsifiers according to the invention do not contain a high molecular weight thixotropic hydrophilic polymer of the polysaccharide type and are therefore perfectly fluid even at low temperature.
- the emulsifiers according to the invention have a rheological profile of the Newtonian fluid type, that is to say that their viscosity is independent of the shear rate; this facilitates their flow in the injection and dilution systems at the time of their use.
- Fire-fighting foam concentrates are an effective means of fighting fires involving combustible liquids. When in use, they are diluted in city water or sea water, generally at a volume concentration of 3% (i.e. 3 volumes of foam concentrate for 97 volumes of water ) or 6% (6 volumes of foam concentrate for 94 volumes of water).
- the quantity of active ingredients necessary to satisfy the minimum extinguishing performance required being identical in the two cases of dilution, the emulsifiers dilutable at 3% are therefore twice as concentrated as those dilutable at 6%; they allow users to store lesser amounts of foam concentrate, save space and reduce their storage costs.
- Recently, the demand for even more concentrated products has led manufacturers to develop 1% dilutable foam concentrates which are particularly useful in the protection of ships or oil platforms where the available space is very limited.
- the resulting mixture After diluting the foam concentrate with water, the resulting mixture produces an aqueous foam by incorporating air and supplying mechanical energy by means of a fire-fighting lance or any other foam generator.
- This foam is poured over fires of combustible liquids and acts by suffocation and cooling until total extinction.
- AFFF Aqueous Film Forming Foam
- these are aqueous solutions comprising as main ingredients a mixture of fluorinated surfactants, hydrocarbon surfactants and foam stabilizing solvents, generally belonging to the glycol family.
- AFFF foam concentrates are described, for example, in US Patents 3,562,156, US 3,772,195, FR 2,347,426 and US 5,085,786.
- Fluoro-protein foam concentrates constitute the other large family of foam concentrates.
- the base foaming agent consists of a hydrolyzate of animal proteins to which fluorinated surfactants and foam stabilizing solvents are added.
- emulsifiers are described for example in patents GB 1,280,508 and GB 1,368,463.
- polar liquids is taken here in the sense accepted by those skilled in the art, that is to say to designate liquids having a certain affinity for water, the most common of which are alcohols (for example, methanol, ethanol and isopropanol), ketones (e.g. dimethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone), esters (e.g. n-butyl acetate) and ethers (e.g. methyl tert-butyl ether ).
- alcohols for example, methanol, ethanol and isopropanol
- ketones e.g. dimethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone
- esters e.g. n-butyl acetate
- ethers e.g. methyl tert-butyl ether
- the most common method of fighting polar solvent fires is to incorporate a high molecular weight hydrophilic polymer into either of the two types of foam concentrates described above; a polysaccharide of thixotropic and alcoophobic character is generally used.
- a versatile foam concentrate is thus obtained, that is to say usable both on hydrocarbon fires and on polar liquid fires.
- the polysaccharide contained in the foam precipitates on contact with the polar liquid and forms a protective gelatinous sheet which isolates the foam against the destructive action of the polar liquid.
- the foam can then spread over the gelatinous sheet and extinguish the fire.
- Such versatile emulsifiers are described in US Patents 4,464,267, US 4,149,599, FR 2,206,958 and WO 92/15371.
- 3x3 foam concentrates (dilutable to 3% both on hydrocarbon fires and on polar liquid fires) have been developed.
- the advantage of these 3x3 foam concentrates compared to 6x6 foam concentrates is that it is sufficient for an identical efficiency to store them half as much; compared to 3x6 foam concentrates, they have the advantage of being able to be used with a single mixing system whatever the type of fire and thus eliminating the risk of dosage error.
- Patent EP 595,772 describes the association of a polysaccharide with an anionic hydrophilic polymer making it possible to prepare low viscosity solutions, these solutions forming part of the composition of 3 ⁇ 3 polyvalent emulsifiers.
- Patent EP 609 827 describes the association of a polysaccharide and an alginate and indicates that the viscosity of a polyvalent 3 ⁇ 3 foam concentrate can be reduced by controlling the relative proportions of the polysaccharide and the alginate; viscosity can also be reduced by controlling the ratio of the concentration of aryl or alkylaryl sulfonic acid salts to the concentration of other hydrocarbon surfactants.
- the polysaccharide in aqueous solution leads to pseudoplastic emulsifiers whose viscosity varies with the shear rate.
- the polysaccharide is in dispersed form using hydrophobic colloidal silica and the amount of water in the foam concentrate is minimized so that the polysaccharide, which is only soluble in l water, does not increase the final viscosity of the foam concentrate.
- the polysaccharide level can be increased until a 1x1 foam concentrate is obtained, dilutable to only 1% in water, both on hydrocarbon fires and on fires of polar liquids.
- the dispersing medium is a water-miscible solvent of the glycol family. Under these conditions, the need to replace the dilution water with an equivalent quantity of solvent leads to emulsifiers having a high cost price.
- Patent EP 524 138 relates to versatile emulsifiers combining a polysaccharide with a fluorinated co-telomer.
- the fluorinated co-telomer is obtained by radical telomerization of a fluorinated telogen on a mixture of non-fluorinated acrylic or methacrylic monomers.
- the association of the co-telomer with the polysaccharide reinforces its effectiveness and allows the incorporation of lower quantities, therefore obtaining less versatile viscous emulsifiers.
- these emulsifiers nevertheless retain a pseudoplastic character, the viscosity of which varies with the shear rate.
- Multipurpose emulsifiers containing no polysaccharide are described in US Pat. No. 4,536,298.
- the polysaccharide is replaced by a cationic, water-soluble homopolymer, from the family of polyamines, polyamides and polyimines neutralized by acids.
- polyfunctional carboxylic the association of the two families of products leads to a synergy which reinforces the resistance of the extinguishing foam on polar liquid.
- US Patent 4,563,287 describes an extinguishing composition for cooking oil fires, containing a high molecular weight copolymer comprising perfluoroalkylated side chains and hydrophilic side chains; the hydrophilic monomer level is high enough to make the copolymer soluble in water.
- Patent FR 2 438 484 describes the use of a copolymer prepared from a hydrophilic monomer and from a perfluorinated chain monomer. To be sufficiently soluble in water, the copolymer must comprise 1 to 10 hydrophilic units for each unit with a perfluorinated chain.
- the present invention aims to overcome all the problems associated with the use of polysaccharides and to prepare versatile foam concentrates containing a copolymer with a high fluorine content so as to increase the performance of the foam concentrate on polar liquid fires.
- the level of fluorinated monomer is high, the copolymer becomes generally insoluble in water.

It is the same for the well-known antifreeze power of ethylene glycol, the latter solvent can then be used in combination with one or more other solvents.
- the foam concentrate according to the invention is advantageously stabilized at a pH at least equal to 4, preferably between 6 and 8.
- the preparation of the foam concentrate is carried out by simple mixing of the constituents (a), (b), (c), (d) and others optionally at room temperature or by heating to a moderate temperature and with stirring.
- the foam concentrate is then diluted with tap water or sea water at a rate of 0.5 to 6 parts by volume, preferably 1 to 3 parts by volume per 100 parts by volume in total.
- the resulting extinguishing composition is used to fight fires of hydrocarbons and polar liquids.
- the overrun (or expansion rate) is the ratio of the volume of foam produced from a 3% aqueous solution of foam concentrate to the volume of initial liquid.
- 100 ml of 3% aqueous emulsifier solution is introduced into a 1 liter test tube, then the solution is beaten for one minute at the rate of one beat per second using a circular piston perforated (30 holes of 5 mm in diameter representing 25% of the surface) and fixed in its center to a metal rod.
- This test which indicates the speed of formation of the aqueous film on the surface of the hydrocarbons is carried out by pouring 50 ml of hydrocarbon into a Petri dish (diameter: 11.8 cm) whose outer face is painted black in order to be able to observe the film.
- a Petri dish diameter: 11.8 cm
- 0.5 ml of a 3% aqueous solution of emulsifier is deposited using a micro pipette.
- the solution should be applied dropwise starting from the center and making an eccentric movement.
- the stopwatch is started when the first drop is deposited and stopped when the film has covered the entire surface of the hydrocarbon. We note the time. If the total recovery is not obtained in less than a minute, the percentage of surface covered after one minute is noted.
- the most efficient foam concentrates to give a foam which is impermeable to polar liquid vapors are those with the lowest evaporation in mg / min.
- Tests are also carried out under more severe conditions on polar liquid fires.
- the procedure is identical but the polar liquid is ignited and allowed to burn for 90 seconds before pouring the foam to extinguish it.
- the amount of polar liquid used is 150 ml and about 50 g of foam are poured.
- the acetone evaporation rate should be less than 85 mg / min for the cold test and less than 150 mg / min for the fire test.
