HD Fire Protect Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AR-AFFF 1×3-C6) in Saudi Arabia
HD AR-AFFF 1X3-C6 is an Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam concentrate, specially formulated with new generation C6 based fluorinated surfactants which are environmentally safer. HD AR-AFFF 1X3-C6 is formulated with C6 based Fluoro surfactants, Hydrocarbon surfactants, polysaccharides and solvents. It produces thin yet strong aqueous film on Hydrocarbon fuel surface, sealing the surface and preventing fuel vapour release. The foam spreads rapidly on fuel surface due to positive spreading provided by fluoro surfactants while the foam blanket excludes oxygen from the fuel surface and provides cooling effect leading to fast flame knockdown and extinguishment. HD AR-AFFF 3X3-C6 is intended for use at 1% solution in fresh, sea/salt or hard water for hydrocarbon and 3% polar solvents fires.
With its alcohol-resistant properties, the AR-AFFF 1×3-C6 foam is highly effective in suppressing fires fueled by polar solvents, including ethanol, methanol, and acetone, as well as hydrocarbon-based fuels like gasoline and diesel. It forms a stable foam blanket that rapidly extinguishes flames, cools the fuel surface, and prevents reignition, making it an essential component of fire suppression systems in industrial, commercial, and hazardous environments.
The AR-AFFF 1×3-C6 foam is UL and FM approved, ensuring its compliance with stringent industry standards for fire protection effectiveness and reliability. Its versatile application and superior performance make it an ideal choice for facilities where the risk of polar solvent fires is a concern, providing enhanced safety and peace of mind in the event of a fire emergency.
