Bromochlorodifluoromethane
Bromochlorodifluoromethane was introduced as an effective gaseous fire suppression agent in the mid-1960s. BCF was also widely used in the maritime industries and transport industries. Its efficiency as a fire extinguishing agent has also led it to be the predominant choice of fire extinguishing agent on commercial aircraft. Other names of BCF Read more…

Bromochloromethane
Bromochloromethane is a mixed halomethane. It was invented for use in fire extinguishers as an alternative to carbon tetrachloride. It is less toxic, more effective than carbon tetrachloride. Its also referred to as methylene bromochloride and Halon 1011. CAS no: 74-97-5 Properties Generic Properties Critical Properties Temperature Dependent Properties Specific Heat The specific heat at Read more…

Bromoform
Bromoform is an organic, colorless liquid at room temperature, with a high refractive index, very high density, and sweet odor is similar to chloroform. It can be prepared by the haloform reaction using acetone and sodium hypobromite, by the electrolysis of potassium bromide in ethanol, or by treating chloroform with Read more…

Bromotrifluoromethane
Bromotrifluoromethane is a colorless, odorless gas at room temperature. It is a noncombustible, nontoxic gas but can asphyxiate by the displacement of air. Contact with the unconfined liquid can cause frostbite by evaporative cooling. Exposure of the container to prolonged heat or fire can cause it to rupture violently and Read more…
C
Carbon disulfide
Carbon disulfide is a colorless liquid with an ether-like odor. Its exposure can cause dizziness, headache, anxiety, and vision changes. The level of exposure depends upon the dose, duration, and work being done. Carbon disulfide is used in many industries. It’s used to make rubber, viscose rayon, cellophane, and carbon Read more…

Carbon Tetrachloride
Carbon tetrachloride is an organic compound with the chemical formula CCl4. It is a colorless liquid with a “sweet” smell. It is not flammable at lower temperatures and widely used in fire extinguishers, as a precursor to refrigerants and as a cleaning agent. Its other names include tetrachloromethane, carbon tet, Read more…
