WHAT DOES HALON MEAN IN POLISH?

halons

Halony

Halon - trade name of bromo, fluoro- and chloro-hydrocarbon compounds formerly used as extinguishing agents. The halon fire extinguishers, which break the combustion reaction by deactivating free radicals in the flame, are highly effective. Halons were designed to extinguish Class B and Class C fires. Due to their properties they were also used to extinguish fires of electronic, telecommunication and live electrical equipment. They were the most effective fire extinguishers of all known extinguishing agents. Owing to the high potential of ozone depletion under the Montreal Protocol, they are being phased out. They have properties similar to freons, just as they destroy the ozone layer in the Earth's atmosphere. Another serious disadvantage of these compounds is their harmfulness to human health. The toxic effects of both halon vapors and the compounds produced by its decomposition at high temperatures are both toxic. For these reasons, it is almost impossible to use this extinguisher in the world today.

Halon – nazwa handlowa związków bromo-, fluoro- i chloropochodnych węglowodorów, stosowanych dawniej jako środki gaśnicze. Działanie gaśnicze halonów, polegające na przerwaniu reakcji spalania w wyniku dezaktywacji wolnych rodników w płomieniu, odznacza się bardzo wysoką skutecznością. Halony przeznaczone były do gaszenia pożarów klasy B i C. Ze względu na swoje właściwości używane były również do gaszenia pożarów urządzeń elektronicznych, telekomunikacyjnych i elektrycznych pod napięciem. Odznaczały się największą skutecznością gaśniczą z wszystkich znanych do tej pory środków gaśniczych. Z uwagi na wysoki potencjał niszczenia ozonu na mocy Protokołu Montrealskiego są wycofywane z użycia. Mają one właściwości podobne do freonów, podobnie jak one niszczą warstwę ozonową w atmosferze ziemskiej. Kolejną poważną wadą tych związków jest ich szkodliwość dla zdrowia człowieka. Działanie toksyczne wykazują zarówno opary samego halonu jak i związków powstałych w wyniku jego rozkładu w wysokiej temperaturze. Z powyższych względów obecnie już prawie nie używa się na świecie tego środka gaśniczego.
