Abstract
(Maximum 200 words) Under the Montreal Protocol, an international treaty, the production of the fire and explosion protection agent Halon 1301 (bromotrifluoromethane, BFC-13B1, CBrF 3 ) was phased out in the U. S. at the end of 1993. To date, no environmentally acceptable halon substitute equivalent to the existing halons in toxicity, effectiveness, and dimensionality has been identified. The objectives of the overall effort is to reassess the higher volatility chemicals in the families of phosphorus nitrides, silanes, siloxanes, fluorinated amines and/or ethers, and other non-halocarbons which might be appropriate for Halon 1301 replacement applications. In an accompanying report (Tapscott, R. E., Heinonen, E. W., and Mather, J. D., Identification and Proof Testing of New Total Flooding Agents: Toxicity and Global Environmental Assessment, NMERI 97/29/33010, U. S.DoD Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program and the Defense Advance Research Projects Agency--- Arlington...
