In the family, there are two places with the highest fire probability, one is the overload of electrical appliances, and the other is the kitchen, especially the kitchen, where the probability of fire is more than 70%.
When people are cooking, they are very relaxed. If you answer the phone and say something, more than 10 minutes will pass. Maybe it is more than 10 minutes and the kitchen will catch fire. Because fire is only a matter of about 2 minutes. Some time ago, The video of the restaurant explosion is well-known because the cooking pot caught fire and proper fire fighting methods were not used, so the explosion occurred.
Actually, there are many ways to put out a small fire in the early stage of a kitchen fire. If possible, prepare a bag of dry powder in the kitchen, or light fire extinguishing equipment, which can be used in case of fire. If you do not have fire extinguishing equipment, you must use the existing items in the kitchen to extinguish the fire. For example, salt is a household fire extinguishing agent that you can choose in an emergency.
Table salt is very common in daily life. It is not only an indispensable condiment, but also an effective fire extinguishing agent in the first fire. The main component of table salt is sodium chloride (NaCl), which can be quickly decomposed into sodium hydroxide under a high-temperature fire source. Through chemical action, it absorbs free radicals in the combustion process and inhibits the progress of combustion. When the amount of salt used for fire fighting is sufficient, more free radicals are consumed than free radicals decomposed by combustion, leading to the interruption of the combustion reaction. Prepare some granular salt in the home, which is an effective extinguishing agent for extinguishing stove fires and solid smoldering fires. Granular salt because of its large particles and high water content, absorbs heat and expands quickly at high temperatures, destroying the shape of the flame. At the same time, it undergoes an endothermic reaction to dilute the oxygen concentration in the combustion zone, so the fire is quickly extinguished. The fire-extinguishing properties of table salt can be used even in normal times. The fine salt surface, uniform particles, and a certain amount of moisture are also a good helper in fighting oil fires.
