摘要

目的探讨水凝胶作为灭火剂和火灾抑制材料的优势及应用前景。方法通过文献调研,总结水凝胶的灭火机理、原料的来源、制备方法及它在灭火和火灾抑制等方面的应用,对水凝胶灭火剂面临的挑战和前景进行展望。结论水凝胶凭借多重阻燃机制（如吸热降温、覆盖阻隔、自由基抑制等）及绿色可持续特性,在火灾防控中展现出显著优势。随着材料科学与技术的创新突破,水凝胶有望发展成为集绿色减震包装、高效灭火、环境友好等功能于一体的新型消防材料,为工业、林业、交通等多领域提供更可靠的防火安全保障。

Abstract

The work aims to explore the advantages and applications of hydrogels as fire extinguishers and fire suppressants. It summarized their mechanisms, material sources, preparation methods, and applications based on literature research, while addressing challenges and prospects. In conclusion, hydrogels exhibit significant fire prevention potential due to multiple flame-retardant mechanisms (such as heat absorption and cooling, covering and blocking and free radical inhibition) and green sustainability. With the innovative breakthroughs in materials science and technology, hydrogels are expected to develop into novel and eco-friendly fire-fighting materials that integrate functions such as green shock-absorbing packaging, efficient fire extinguishing, and environmental friendliness, providing more reliable fire safety guarantees for multiple fields including industry, forestry, and transportation.
