The best method in which to describe the way a fire is through the Fire Triangle. Combustion is defined as the reaction in which oxygen molecules react with the molecules of the substances being burned. The ignition source may be effectively wearing out, taking the heat out of the equation, and the fire. The process will slowly continue repeating itself, over and over again until the heat source and available fuel outweighs and overpowers the fire retardant capabilities, finally flashing over into a fully developed. Fire can destroy a property and all its contents in less than 20 minutes, and it can reduce an entire forest to a pile of ash and charred wood. It’s also a terrifying weapon, with nearly unlimited destructive power which kills more people every year than any other force of nature. It is estimated that the annual cost of fire in developed nations is around 1 % of GDP. This is how the compromise of the application of fire retardants is reached, in event of a fire their ability to control, isolate, delay, protect and safeguard the lives and capital investments in its vicinity cannot be underestimated.
