Fire inhibitor formulation
View Patent ↗The present invention is directed to an aqueous-based fire inhibitor formulation comprising potassium salts and high nitrogen-based constituents encapsulated with a binder. The formulation contains no halogenated or toxic materials and is considered safe around adult humans and animals. The solvent is water-based and the dry state of the formulation emits virtually zero volatile organic compounds.
1. An aqueous fire inhibitor composition comprising:
water,
ammonium bromide,
monoammonium phosphate,
diammonium phosphate,
ammonium sulfate or urea, and
a binder encapsulating the ammonium bromide, the monoammonium phosphate, the diammonium phosphate, and the ammonium sulfate or the urea.
2. The aqueous fire inhibitor composition of claim 1 , wherein the binder comprises aryl either phosphate.
3. The aqueous fire inhibitor composition of claim 1 , wherein the binder comprises pine oil.
4. The aqueous fire inhibitor composition of claim 1 , wherein the binder comprises aloe vera.
5. The aqueous fire inhibitor composition of claim 1 , further comprising sodium carbonate.
6. The aqueous fire inhibitor composition of claim 5 , wherein the pH of the aqueous fire inhibitor composition is greater than 6.0.
7. The aqueous fire inhibitor composition of claim 6 , wherein the pH of the aqueous fire inhibitor composition is greater than 6.4.
8. The aqueous fire inhibitor composition of claim 7 , wherein the pH of the aqueous fire inhibitor composition is greater than 6.8.
9. An aqueous fire inhibitor composition comprising:
water,
a mixture of sodium bromide and ammonium fluoride,
monoammonium phosphate,
diammonium phosphate,
ammonium sulfate or urea, and
a binder encapsulating the mixture of sodium and ammonium fluoride, the monoammonium phosphate, the diammonium phosphate, and the ammonium sulfate or the urea.
10. A method for creating an aqueous fire inhibitor composition, the method comprising the steps of:
adding diammonium phosphate, ammonium bromide, urea or ammonium sulfate, and monoammonium phosphate to water to form a mixture;
agitating the mixture to form a homogenous mixture; and
adding a binder to the homogenous mixture to form a fully bonded molecule formula.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the binder comprises aryl ether phosphate.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the binder comprises pine oil.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the binder comprises aloe vera.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the diammonium phosphate, ammonium bromide, urea or ammonium sulfate, and monoammonium phosphate are added in that respective order.
15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising the steps of:
blending the binder with the homogenous mixture to form a blended mixture; and
removing impurities from the blended mixture.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the step of removing impurities from the blended mixture comprises separating float material from the blended mixture.
17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the step of removing impurities from the blended mixture comprises draining the blended mixture from a bottom of a container containing the blended mixture.
18. A product treated with a fire inhibitor composition comprising:
a product, and
an aqueous fire inhibitor composition comprising water, ammonium bromide, monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, ammonium sulfate or urea, and a binder encapsulating the ammonium bromide, the monoammonium phosphate, the diammonium phosphate, and the ammonium sulfate or the urea.
19. The product of claim 18 , wherein the product is selected from the group consisting of:
wood, a textile, a mattress, a furniture piece, a baby car seat cover, an airplane seat cover, carpet, clothing, a fabric laminated wall, cellulose insulation, wire insulation, and any combination thereof.
