Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of fire-extinguishing foams or foam concentrates.
  • Fuels are the extinguishing water usually added special foaming agents. These have surfactant properties and allow in contrast to conventional
  • Extinguishing foam means the self-wetting of the burned material surface. Therefore, such a so-called AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foams) extinguishing foams form as a special feature a film of water on the surface of the burning liquid. The resulting vapor barrier makes it more difficult for the combustible liquid to pass into the gas phase and thus maintain the fire or form ignitable or explosive gas mixtures.
  • the wetting ability characteristic of the AFFF foams also allows the foam to slide on the surface of the burning liquid so that it also reaches areas where the extinguishing foam can not be applied directly.
  • the Schaumfiambae closes after disturbance (for example, by falling objects) again independently.
  • the film also flows and acts in areas that are not directly reached by foam.
  • PFOS perfluorooctyl sulfonate
  • Extinguishing foams with more than 50 ppm PFOS content must not be used in the EU.
  • various other polyfluorinated surfactants are used as substitutes for PFOS in AFFF. These surfactants are heretofore believed to be non-bioactive or at least less bioaccumulating and toxic.
  • a final assessment is still pending and the fundamental problem of persistence of polyfluorinated compounds remains intact.
  • a fire-extinguishing foam concentrate which comprises a surfactant containing at least one substituted or unsubstituted carbohydrate or carbohydrate derivative and at least one oligosiloxane.
  • the term "containing" in this context means that both the carbohydrate or carbohydrate derivative and the oligosiloxane are subcomponents of a larger molecule and both are attached via covalent bonds to the remainder of the molecule are suitable and, depending on the application, at least one of the following advantages can be achieved:
  • the total molecular size of the surfactants of the invention is sufficiently small with sufficient solubility; small
  • the surfactant is halogen-free, in particular fluorine-free and can be produced as far as possible from renewable raw materials.
  • the surfactants enable the self-formation of a closed water film on the surface of the fire (eg fuel): As a vapor barrier, this water film impedes the transition of the flammable liquid into the gas phase and thus minimizes the fire that sustains the fire or flammable gas mixtures forms.
  • the surfactant comprises a molecule selected from the group comprising
  • B represents an optional linker substructure of at least one atom or a chain and C is an oligosiloxane, preferably a di-, tri- or tetrasiloxane
  • A is a substituted or unsubstituted carbohydrate or carbohydrate derivative having one to four sugar units.
  • Preferred are mono-, di- and trisaccharides, i. one, two or three sugar units.
  • subcomponent A or parts of subcomponent A may also be derived from carbohydrate derivatives such as e.g. the sugar acids (aldonic acids, uronic acids or
  • Aldar acids sugar alcohols (alditols), aminosugars or cyclitols, as well as their emerns, esters, amides or thioesters.
  • sugar moieties or “carbohydrate” is understood to mean, in particular, hexoses, pentoses or cyclitols, which (in the presence of di- or higher saccharides) are preferably linked to one another in a glycosidic manner.
  • the carbohydrates may be substituted or unsubstituted, with unsubstituted carbohydrates being preferred because of the resulting higher
