It works very similar to halon; -bromine from the molecule scavenges the chemical reaction (i.e., the fire) by stripping hydrogen from the fuel source, creating hydrogen bromide (HBr), which interrupts the combustion cycle by reacting with combustion radicals to...
It has a relatively high boiling point of 93F(34C) and this makes it a suitable replacement for Halon, making it suitable for use in portable fire extinguishers, where the operator can apply the agent at extended distances. This is in contrast to other agents (HFC’s)...
Halotron BrX (stabilized 2-BTP) is a high-performance clean extinguishing agent (i.e. volatile and electrically non-conductive) and is a drop-in replacement for halon as a streaming agent. It contains bromine (The chemical name is 2-bromo-trifluoropentene) which is...
