Fire suppression composition
Disclosed herein is a fire suppression composition including CF 3 I, an anti-freeze compound, and an odorant compound, wherein the anti-freeze compound and the odorant compound are radical scavengers.
1. A fire suppression composition comprising CF 3 I, an anti-freeze compound, and an odorant compound, wherein the anti-freeze compound and the odorant compound are radical scavengers and the anti-freeze compound is present in an amount of 0.5 to 2.5 wt %, based on the total weight of the fire suppression composition.
2. The fire suppression composition of claim 1 , wherein the anti-freeze compound comprises methanol, ethanol, propanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol or a combination thereof.
3. The fire suppression composition of claim 1 , wherein the odorant compound has a freezing point less than or equal to −85° F. under storage conditions.
4. The fire suppression composition of claim 1 , wherein the odorant compound comprises two or more carbon-carbon double bonds.
5. The fire suppression composition of claim 4 , wherein the odorant compound further comprises a hydroxyl group, an iodine group or both.
6. The fire suppression composition of claim 1 , wherein the odorant compound is an aromatic compound.
7. The fire suppression composition of claim 6 , wherein the odorant compound further comprises a hydroxyl group, an iodine group or both.
8. The fire suppression composition of claim 1 , wherein the odorant compound is present in an amount less than 1 wt %, based on the total weight of the fire suppression composition.
9. The fire suppression composition of claim 1 , wherein the anti-freeze compound may be present in an amount of 0.5 to 2 wt %, based on the total weight of the fire suppression composition.
10. The fire suppression composition of claim 1 , wherein the fire suppression composition has a freezing point less than or equal to −85° F. under storage conditions.
11. A fire suppression composition comprising at least 30 wt % CF 3 I based on the total weight of the fire suppression composition, an anti-freeze compound, and an odorant compound, wherein the anti-freeze compound and the odorant compound are radical scavengers and the anti-freeze compound is present in an amount of 0.5 to 2.5 wt %, based on the total weight of the fire suppression composition.
12. The fire suppression composition of claim 11 , wherein the anti-freeze compound comprises methanol, ethanol, propanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol or a combination thereof.
13. The fire suppression composition of claim 11 , wherein the odorant compound has a freezing point less than or equal to −85° F. under storage conditions.
14. The fire suppression composition of claim 11 , wherein the odorant compound comprises two or more carbon-carbon double bonds.
15. The fire suppression composition of claim 14 , wherein the odorant compound further comprises a hydroxyl group, an iodine group or both.
16. The fire suppression composition of claim 11 , wherein the odorant compound is an aromatic compound.
17. The fire suppression composition of claim 16 , wherein the odorant compound further comprises a hydroxyl group, an iodine group or both.
18. The fire suppression composition of claim 11 , wherein the odorant compound is present in an amount less than 1 wt %, based on the total weight of the fire suppression composition.
19. The fire suppression composition of claim 11 , wherein the anti-freeze compound may be present in an amount of 0.5 to 2 wt %, based on the total weight of the fire suppression composition.
20. The fire suppression composition of claim 11 , wherein the fire suppression composition has a freezing point less than or equal to −85° F. under storage conditions.
