FIRE-EXTINGUISHING AGENT AND FIRE-EXTINGUISHING APPARATUS

摘要

The present invention addresses the problem of realizing: a fire-extinguishing agent which can accommodate various fires such as oil fire, ordinary fire and electrical fire and which can speedily extinguish a fire; and a fire-extinguishing apparatus using the same. This fire-extinguishing agent (11 or 12) comprises, as essential components, a fire-fighting chemical fluid (21 or 22) and an insoluble admixture (such as CB) which takes a fibrous, porous and/or powdery form and which is mixed with the fire-fighting chemical fluid (21 or 22), wherein the fire-fighting chemical fluid (21 or 22) adheres to the insoluble admixture (such as CB). This fire-extinguishing apparatus (40, 43 or 45) is obtained by putting the fire -extinguishing agent (11 or 12) in a container.
