It works by cooling and timely response would ensure that individuals are not affected adversely by heat during a fire out-break. There has been an increase in the improvement of cooking appliances, heating rates and industrial tendency to unsaturated oil. These are potential conditions for severe fires and wet chemical extinguishing would come in handy in mitigating such possibilities.…
