Abstract

This paper examines the three important developments of the trend toward increased use of phosphate esters, and provides a look at what can be expected in the next several years. Phosphate ester fire-resistant fluids offer three significant improvements in fire safety, when compared to petroleum products: (a) increased auto ignition and hot manifold ignition temperatures, (b) non-propagation of a flame, and (c) higher compression/ignition ratio. The use of fire-resistant phosphate ester fluids has increased significantly during the last ten years as a direct result of experience generated and problems being solved.
