Abstract

The paper describes the development of a low chloride content fire extinguishing agent for use on sodium fires. The primary objective was to develop an agent with as low a chloride content as practical that would be effective on sodium fires and could be applied from a pressurized fire extinguisher. Low chloride content was desirable in order to reduce the possibility of chloride stress corrosion, especially in areas where austenitic stainless steels are used.
