Experimental investigations of extinguishing sodium pool fires using modified expandable graphite powders

A new type of composite fire-extinguishing powder was prepared with expandable graphite (EG) and sodium carbonate as the main materials. The morphology, structure, and thermal stability of the extinguishing powder were characterized. A fire-extinguishing experimental system was subsequently construc...
