Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for pneumatically controlling the operation of a water cannon such that the need for electrically power in the immediate vicinity of the water cannon is substantially avoided.
Abstract:
An oil mist discharger (1) is disclosed. The oil mist discharger (1) utilizes a flow regulator (27) which comprises a main passage (28), sub-passages (29) and an agitation chamber (30). Differential pressure between air and oil is created and utilized in drawing oil into an oil feed chamber (39) to be mixed with air. The oil-containing air is sent to the flow regulator (27) and fed into the agitation chamber (30) via the main passage (28) and sub-passages (29) in jet streams to be transformed into a well blended oil mist, which is discharged from a discharge nozzle.
Abstract:
Perfluoroalkyl-substituted amino acid oligomers or polymers obtainable from (A) an aliphatic diamino acid having 3 to 10 carbon atoms such as lysine, (B) a chain extender such as epichlorohydrin, a dihalide or an aliphatic diepoxide, (C) an amino-reactive allyl compound and (D) a perfluoroalkyl iodide, and, optionally, other reactants, are useful as grease-proofing agents for paper and are excellent foam stabilizers for Aqueous Fire-Fighting Foam (AFFF) formulations used on polar solvent fires.
