Abstract

A fire-extinguishing composition comprises at least 50% by volume perchloroethylene, dichloromethane or a mixture thereof and less than 50% by volume of at least one brominated hydrocarbon, particularly chlorobromomethane. Preferred compositions are (1) 40-80% perchloroethylene, 0-25% dichloromethane and 15-40% brominated hydrocarbon or (2) 35-45% perchloroethylene, 35-45% dichloromethane and the remainder chlorobromomethane. The compositions may be applied from a pressurised extinguisher the pressurising gas being, for example, CO2 or N2.
