- the emulsions give in the application according to the invention clear gels, which are storage stable even at higher temperatures. They are liable to fire fighting on vertical surfaces and effectively hinder too fast evaporation of the fire-fighting water. They are particularly suitable in extinguishing water, which is discharged from a greater height to a fire, for example from a helicopter.
- the viscosities reported in the examples were ometer in a Brookfield R / S rhenium, spindle 40203T01 V, at 20 rpm and a temperature of 23 0 C.
- the parts mean parts by weight.
- azostar VA 044 [2,2'-azobis (N, N'-dimethyleneisobutyramidine) dihydrochloride] in 10 g of completely demineralized water was added and the mixture was rinsed with 10 g of water.
- the Conceptsmi- research was then heated under constant passage of nitrogen to a temperature of 40 0 C and polymerized for 5 hours at this temperature.
- 0.3 g of azo starter VA 044 in 10 g of completely deionized water was added, rinsed with 10 g of completely deionized water and the reaction mixture was stirred for 2 hours at 40 ° C for postpolymerization. This gave a white emulsion which had a viscosity of 1200 mPas. It will be referred to below as Dispersion A.
- the viscosities indicated in the table were measured with a Brookfield R / S rheometer, spindle V 40203T01, at 150 rpm and a temperature of 23 ° C.
