Die zunehmende Verbreitung von Lithium-Ionen-Batterien in Elektrofahrzeugen, Solaranlagen und vielen elektronischen Geräten bringt neben technologischem Fortschritt auch neue Herausforderungen im Brandschutz mit sich.
Brände, die durch Lithium-Ionen-Batterien verursacht werden, stellen besondere Risiken dar, weil herkömmliche Feuerlöscher, die für klassische Brandarten entwickelt wurden, häufig nicht ausreichend wirksam sind.
Das kann das Löschen verzögern und das Ausmass von Schäden sowie Gefahren deutlich erhöhen. Als Antwort auf dieses Problem wird „FlameBlock Lithium Black“ als neuartige Sicherheitslösung vorgestellt, die speziell für Lithium-Ionen-Batteriebrände entwickelt wurde.

| Term | Explanation |
|---|---|
| AFFF (Aqueous Film-Forming Foam) | A fluorinated foam concentrate that forms a thin aqueous film on burning liquids, preventing oxygen access and suppressing vapour formation. It is now heavily regulated because of PFAS concerns. |
| Aerosol Fire Suppression System | A fire suppression technology that generates a solid-particle aerosol to interrupt the chemical chain reaction of combustion. It is frequently used in electrical installations. |
| Brand Classes | Classification of fires according to the burning material: A for solid materials, B for liquids, C for gases, D for metals, and F for cooking oils and fats. It forms the basis for selecting the appropriate extinguishing agent. |
| Carbon Dioxide Extinguishing Agent | Carbon dioxide used as a fire-extinguishing gas. It works by displacing oxygen and providing limited cooling. It leaves no residue and is suitable for electrical installations. |
| Compressed Air Foam System (CAFS) | A foam-generation system that combines water, foam concentrate, and compressed air. It improves foam adhesion and firefighting efficiency. |
| Cooling Effect | A fire-extinguishing principle based on heat removal, usually through the use of water. It lowers the temperature below the ignition temperature. |
| Dilution | A fire-extinguishing principle based on reducing the concentration of oxygen or combustible gases. |
| Fire Extinguishing Agent | A substance or mixture used to fight fires, such as water, foam, powder, gases, or aerosols. |
| Firefighting Foam | A mixture of water, foam concentrate, and air. It forms a foam blanket that separates the fuel from oxygen and provides cooling. |
| Fire Protection Agent | A general term for substances and systems used to prevent, contain, or extinguish fires. |
| Flame Retardant | A chemical additive incorporated into materials to reduce flammability or delay the spread of fire. |
| Fluorine-Free Foam (F3) | A foam concentrate that does not contain PFAS. It works through a stable foam blanket and cooling rather than film formation. |
| Gas Fire Suppression System | An automatic fire suppression system that uses inert or chemical gases to reduce oxygen levels or interrupt the combustion reaction. |
| Halon | A highly effective extinguishing gas formerly used in fire suppression systems. It has been largely banned because of its ozone-depleting potential. |
| Ignition Source | An energy source, such as a spark, open flame, or hot surface, that can initiate combustion. |
| Ignition Temperature | The lowest temperature at which a substance ignites without an external ignition source. |
| Inert Gas | A non-combustible gas, such as nitrogen or argon, used to reduce the oxygen concentration in a protected space. |
| Inhibitor | A substance that interrupts the chemical chain reaction of combustion. |
| Intumescent Coating | A fire-protective coating that expands when exposed to heat and forms an insulating protective layer. |
| Lithium Fire Extinguishing Agent | A specialised extinguishing agent for fires involving lithium or lithium-ion batteries. Such agents are often based on water mist, gel, or specialised powders. |
| Metal Fire Extinguishing Agent | A specialised powder used to extinguish metal fires classified as Class D fires. |
| Oxidising Agent | A substance that supplies oxygen or can promote combustion. It is an important factor in fire-risk assessment. |
| Powder Extinguishing Agent | Finely ground salts that interrupt the chemical reaction in the flame. They are widely applicable but cause significant contamination and residue. |
| Smoke Suppression | Measures or additives used to reduce the production of toxic smoke. |
| Sprinkler System | An automatic water-based fire suppression system with heat-activated sprinkler heads. |
| Surface-Active Wetting Agent | An additive that reduces the surface tension of water and improves its penetration into solid materials. |
| Thermal Barrier | A material or coating designed to delay heat transfer. |
| Water | The most commonly used extinguishing agent. It works primarily through cooling and, to a lesser extent, through smothering. |
| Water Mist | A fire suppression technology that uses very fine water droplets to achieve a strong cooling effect while using relatively little water. |
