Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of fire extinguishing materials, and particularly relates to a granular fire extinguishing material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Fire is a combustion phenomenon characterized by the release of heat and accompanied by smoke or flame or both, and its energy is released in the form of light and heat. Fire must have three coexisting conditions: combustible material, high enough heat or temperature, and oxidizer. A fire or fire disaster refers to a combustion that is out of control in time or space or the disaster caused thereby. Fire is one of the main disasters that most frequently and most generally threaten public safety and social development.

[0003] According to the type and combustion characteristics of the combustible material, fire includes six different categories, specifically:

[0004] Class A fire: solid material fire (such material usually has organic properties and generally produces hot embers when burning); Class B fire: liquid or meltable solid material fire; Class C fire: gas fire; Class D fire: metal fire; Class E fire: electrically charged fire (fire caused by burning of an object with electric charge); Class F fire: cooking appliance inside cooking material (such as animal and plant oil) fire.

[0005] Fire extinguishing is an activity and process of extinguishing or suppressing a fire, and a fire extinguishing agent or material is usually used in fire extinguishing. The fire extinguishing agent or material refers to a substance that can effectively destroy the combustion condition and terminate the combustion. Existing fire extinguishing agents mainly include water-based fire extinguishing agents, dry powder fire extinguishing agents, foam fire extinguishing agents, and gas fire extinguishing agents. Among them, the water-based fire extinguishing agent takes water as the main component, and the water-based fire extinguishing agent plays a role in enhancing fire extinguishing by adding some chemical reagents to the water or by changing the physical properties of the water; the dry powder fire extinguishing agent is a fine particle prepared by grinding a mixture of a fire extinguishing base material and an appropriate amount of lubricant and moisture-proof agent, and carbon dioxide is commonly used as the injection power. The fire extinguishing component in the dry powder fire extinguishing agent can absorb free radicals in the combustion reaction and inhibit the chain reaction of combustion; the foam fire extinguishing agent is miscible with water and generates foam for fire extinguishing through mechanical action or chemical reaction; the gas fire extinguishing agent is generally a mixture of inert gases such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen and halogenated alkane substances such as heptafluoropropane and hexafluoropropane. When extinguishing a fire, the gas fire extinguishing agent quickly fills the fire space, effectively reducing the oxygen concentration in the space, thereby achieving the effect of extinguishing the fire. In addition, there are some new types of fire extinguishing materials, such as water-absorbing resin, hydrogel (such as acrylic acid particles), etc.

[0006] However, the water-absorbing resin fire extinguishing material needs to be mixed with water when used, and the opportunity for extinguishing the fire is often delayed. The preparation process of the acrylic acid particles is generally complex and the cost is high. Moreover, the above-mentioned fire extinguishing agents or materials cannot be reused. SUMMARY
