Fire Extinguishers
Generate CO2
Sodium bicarbonate is used in most dry fire extinguishers. When dispensed, the products absorb heat, decompose to form fire smothering carbon dioxide, and release free radicals which interrupt the flame chain reaction mechanism. Potassium bicarbonate is commonly utilized in industrial applications, as it decomposes at the higher temperatures found in grease and chemical type fires.
Extinguish Oil and Grease Fires
Interestingly, some fire extinguishers contain baking soda.They are known as dry chemical fire extinguishers and are used to extinguish oil, grease and electrical fires. Baking soda reacts with the heat to produce carbon dioxide, which smothers and extinguishes the fire.This means that baking soda can be used to extinguish small oil and grease fires.low price Sodium Bicarbonate Industrial Grade
