Description

Gegenstand der Erfindung sind Feuerlöschpulver aus Kaliumhydrogenkarbonat und Calciumkarbonat.The invention relates to fire extinguishing powders made from potassium hydrogen carbonate and calcium carbonate.

Aus der DE-AS 10 98 368 sind schaumverträgliche Löschpulver bekannt, die aus Kaliumhydrogencarbonat und 10 bis 40 Gew.-% einer Mischung von Magnesium- und Calciumkarbonat bestehen, wobei das Mischungsverhältnis der Karbonate zwischen 1 zu 2 bis 1 zu 1 liegen kann. Aus derDE-AS 11 60 736 ist zu entnehmen, daß sich die Schaumstabilität eines Bikarbonat-Löschpulvers durch einen Gehalt an Gemischen von Magnesiumkarbonat und Calciumkarbonat verbessern läßt.From DE-AS 10 98 368 foam-compatible extinguishing powders are known which are made from potassium hydrogen carbonate and 10 to 40% by weight of a mixture of magnesium and calcium carbonate, the mixing ratio the carbonates can range from 1 to 2 to 1 to 1. From DE-AS 11 60 736 it can be seen that that the foam stability of a bicarbonate extinguishing powder by a content of mixtures of Magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate can improve.

Es ist ferner bekannt, daß die Löschwirksamkeit von Kaliumhydrogenkarbonat bei Flammenbränden um etwa 50% größer ist, als die von Natriumhydrogenkarbonat. Einem breiteren Einsatz von Kaliumhydrogenkarbonat steht aber sein vergleichsweise hoher Preis entgegen, selbst wenn man berücksichtigt, daß Kaliumhydrogenkarbonat bei gleichem Gewicht die höhere Löschreserve bietet.It is also known that the extinguishing effectiveness of potassium hydrogen carbonate in flame fires around is about 50% larger than that of sodium hydrogen carbonate. A wider use of potassium hydrogen carbonate but this is offset by its comparatively high price, even if one takes into account the fact that potassium hydrogen carbonate is used offers the higher extinguishing reserve for the same weight.

Es wurde nun gefunden, daß die Löschwirksamkeit von Feuerlöschpulvern aus Kaliumhydrogenkarbonat und Calciumkarbonat wesentlich höher ist, wenn die Pulver aus 40 bis 60 Gew.-% Kaliumhydrogenkarbonat und 60 bis 40 Gew.-°/o Calciumkarbonat bestehen.It has now been found that the extinguishing effectiveness of fire extinguishing powders made from potassium hydrogen carbonate and calcium carbonate is much higher when the powders are 40 to 60 wt% potassium hydrogen carbonate and 60 to 40% by weight of calcium carbonate.

Selbstverständlich werden die Pulver mit handelsüblichen Mitteln hydrophobiert und rieselfähig gehalten.It goes without saying that the powders are made water-repellent with commercially available agents and kept free-flowing.

Die Schaumverträglichkeit der erfindungsgemäßen Löschpulver steht der von amtlich zugelassenen, handelsüblichen BCE-Pulvern nicht nach.The foam compatibility of the extinguishing powder according to the invention is that of officially approved, commercially available BCE powders.

Die folgenden Vergleichsversuche zeigen die Überlegenheit der erfindungsgemäßen Löschpulver:The following comparative tests show the superiority of the extinguishing powder according to the invention:

Als Brandobjekt diente eine Brandwanne 35 χ 80 χ 23 cm (0,28 m2), die mit 5 1 Wasser als Puffer und 101 Vergaserkraftstoff gefüllt war. Gelöscht' wurde nach 60 see Vorbrand von der Schmalseite der Wanne ίο aus.A fire pan 35 × 80 × 23 cm (0.28 m 2 ), which was filled with 5 liters of water as a buffer and 101 carburetor fuel, served as the fire object. It was extinguished after 60 seconds of pre-fire from the narrow side of the tub ίο.

Es wurde die Pulvermenge in g ermittelt, die zum Ablöschen nötig war. Die Ergebnisse sind in der Tibelle dargestellt.The amount of powder in g that was necessary for extinguishing was determined. The results are in the Tibelle shown.

Der besondere Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Pulver liegt darin, daß sie bei gleichem Löschergewicht eine erheblich höhere Löschreserve bieten, was vor allem bei solchen Löschern wichtig ist, die z. B. in Kraftfahrzeugen mitgeführt werden. Außerdem wurde festgestellt, daß die Rückzündungsgefahr bei den erfindungsgemäßen Pulvern geringer ist. Dies ist ein erheblicher zusätzlicher Vorteil.The particular advantage of the powder according to the invention is that, with the same extinguisher weight, they have a offer significantly higher extinguishing reserves, which is especially important for those extinguishers that use z. B. in motor vehicles be carried. It was also found that the risk of re-ignition in the inventive Powders is less. This is a significant additional benefit.
