As one of the lightest materials in the world, aerogels are widely adapted in heat insulation,
electromagnetic interference shielding, oil-water separation, etc. Nevertheless, owing to …

This article discusses different natural and man-made foams, with particular emphasis on
the different modes of formation and stability. Natural foams, such as those produced on the …

Research and development of novel fluorine‐free materials to replace fluorinated aqueous
film‐forming foam (AFFF) are crucial for improving pool fire suppression performance and …

For understanding the extinguishing effectiveness of gel-stabilized foam fluids, the
rheological law, flow characteristics, and extinguishment process were analyzed …

In order to address the issue of spontaneous combustion in coal mines during the mining
process, we have proposed gel-stabilized foam (GSF) that can prevent and control fires in …

The application of fluorocarbon surfactants in fire-fighting foam has been restricted due to
their serious environmental hazards. Thus, it is necessary to develop the fluorine-free foam …

The ecological properties of fire extinguishing agents used in extinguishing fires of classes A
and B are analyzed. A significant negative effect of fire-extinguishing foams (fluorine …

In order to enhance the inhibition efficiency of inhibitor on spontaneous combustion of coal
and optimize the grouting process of traditional foamed gel, a temperature-sensitive …

The gel-stabilized foam was prepared successfully by forming gel structure in the bubble film
using thickening agent (TA) and crosslinking agent (CLA). The viscosity characteristic …

The oil resistivity of aqueous foam is a significant property in many industrial fields. This
work aims at studying on oil resistivity of foams generated by mixtures of fluorocarbon and …
