Guide To Fire Chemistry & Exinguishment
 Craig Voelkert of Amerex Corporation has been kind enough to provide GAFSED his Guide To Fire Chemistry & Exinguishment , a technical guide to dealing with hazardous fire situations and agents. This guide especially written for fire extinguisher and pre-engineered suppression technicians outlines a very brief and basic understanding of the chemistry of fire, properties of flammable liquids, classification of fire, extinguishment theory for various agents, application and the UL rating system.
