Fluorine-free Ionic Liquids for Aqueous Film Forming Foam

Abstract

The Department of Defense is in need of a fluorine-free Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) fire suppression solution due to the current/preexisting AFFF technology containing fluorine products that are toxic to both the environment and military personnel. In this project, Materials Modification, Inc. (MMI) investigated and developed a fluorine-free ionic liquid for use in AFFF solutions that can potentially meet the performance and toxicity levels of the MIL-F-24385F standard.
