Fires are unsolved problems of world civilization. No less dangerous are the cases of population chocking and poisoning by
fire, which is caused, mainly, by combustion products as well as by toxicity of using safety precautions. Therefore, the world
faces the problem of fire localization, liquidation and development of such safety precautions, which will provide inhibition
of burning of matter in the zone of inflammation and decrease of toxic materials emission. The use of fire-extinguishing and
fire-protective means, occur topical among the mentioned measures. Unfortunately, the statistics confirms, that traditional
fire-extinguishing and fire-protective materials, are sufficiently expensive, not universal, neither eco-safe and less efficient.
Therefore, at present one of the most important problems is the elaboration of non-halogen, eco-safe fire-extinguishing and
fire-protective materials. In our work we describe the ways of development of technology for production of novel, halogen-free,
eco-safe, highly efficient, universal fire-extinguishing powders based on local mineral raw materials and elaboration of new
types, eco-safe fire-protective materials on the basis of such fire-extinguishing powders. The technology for production of these
materials differs from the serial production technology. Fire-extinguishing powders we made by mechanical blending of local
mineral rawmaterials, do not require modification with expensive, halogen-inclusive hydrofobizative additives, what makes the
extinguishing materials far cheaper than imported analogues. Experimental data confirm that such powders are characterized
by high inhibition properties and fire-extinguishing ability. Here it should be noted, that obtained powders similarly to inert
flame retardants, don’t participate in the process of polymer preparation, and in contrast to them are characterized by high
operating properties. Therefore, fire-extinguishing powders of our preparation in fire-protective materials are functioning, as
efficient flame retardants.Thus, fire-protective materials are manufactured only by mechanical mixing of binders- Polyurethane
resins and fillers- High-dispersed fire-extinguishing powders of our preparation, does not need addition of expensive flame
retardants. Therefore such fire-protective materials are eco-safe, very effective and far cheaper than imported analogues.
