Abstract:The replacement of fluorine‐free foam is imminent, but to date, no fluorine‐free foam has reached comparable fire extinguishing performance to AFFF (aqueous film forming foam). The stability of firefighting foam significantly affects its extinguishing performance. In order to better understand the influence of foam formulation physical properties on foam stability, we correlate the foam stability with surface tension and dilational visco‐elasticity based on the AFFF formulation. The results show that, the foam… Show more
