Abstract
The presentation discusses the influence of flame characteristics on gas-phase fire retardant effectiveness. First, the action of super-effective agents in co-flow diffusion flames is reviewed, highlighting how particle formation had a detrimental effect on the inhibiting action, and how this is affected by the flame type and structure. The role of base stabilization, flame oscillation, inhibitor loading, and other flame characteristics are described. Finally, the results of ongoing work with phosphorus compounds (DMMP) in a co-flow diffusion flame are presented.Proceedings Title
