http://www.swfirefightingfoam.com/ Novacool UEF (Universal Extinguishing Foam) Used to Extinguish E-85 (85% ethanol gasoline). Novacool UEF, as a Class B firefighting foam, is able to extinguish 1.5 gallons of E-85 gasoline from a 2.5 gallon extinguisher using just over 2 oz.s of Novacool. Polar solvents such as ethanol present an ever growing threat to fire departments across the country as it is being used more and more as a gasoline additive and is being shipped throughout the country via freeways and rail. Conventional AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foams) and AR-AFFF (Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foams) are unable to extinguish ethanol or polar solvent flammables, making Novacool UEF an important tool for any fire department.  Novacool is also able to extinguish 3D fires, whereas AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foams) and AR-AFFF (Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foams) cannot.  Novacool UEF is also bio-degradable and the most cost effective fire fighting foam on the market. It's cross platform ability to extinguish both Class A and Class B fires takes the guess work out of which foam to use when combatting a fire. Novacool is non-corrosive and will not gel...

http://www.swfirefightingfoam.com/ This is a recap of the 2nd attempt to re-ignite Class B fuels (4 gallons of diesel with 1 gallon of gasoline). Re-ignition was possible but only after sustained and repeated direct flame impingement to the fuel. There was just 2 oz.s of Novacool in the 2.5 gallon Water extinguisher used to extinguish the fire.

http://www.swfirefightingfoam.com/ Novacool UEF is used to demonstrate its effectiveness on Class B fuels, in this case, jet fuel. Novacool foam concentrate is a wetting agent that is bio-degradable and can be used in place of AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam) or AR-AFFF (Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam) that is currently being used.  AFFF is bio-accumulative and costs many times more to use, being used at 6 times to 12 times the amount of Novacool UEF.

http://www.swfirefightingfoam.com/ 2 cars, 1 pick-up truck and the helicopter were all extinguished in under 5 minutes using Novacool UEF.  Consider this:  both cars and the pick-up were fueled with e-10 (10% ethanol gasoline), had tires and metals involved and the helicopter was burning jet fuel and was made from composite materials and metals.  Novacool fire fighting foam for both Class A and Class B fuels.
