Ionex – EFX Extinguisher

Ionex-EFX is 100% all-natural, encapsulator agent-based fire extinguisher with no forever chemicals, exclusively developed for lithium-ion battery fires. Ionex-EFX contains a UL-certified agent, which is an aqueous dispersion of vermiculite. The agent is made entirely from eco-friendly ingredients. When discharged onto battery fires using a fire extinguisher, the fine particles in the agent settle on the burning surface and suppresses the fire. Its natural heat-absorbing properties help extinguish flames faster and cool the burning fuel, minimizing the risk of battery fire reignition. These extinguishers are also effective against Class A, Class C, and Class D fires.

The extinguishant is fully compliant with DOT requirements, ensuring safety and regulatory compliance during transport and use.

Features & Applications

Key Features

Battery Fires: Effective on lithium-ion battery fires.
Multi-Class Fire Agent: Works on Class A, Class C, and Class D fires.
Environmentally Friendly: Contains no forever chemicals and zero VOCs.
Encapsulating Properties: The agent has strong encapsulating properties.
Rapid Fire Suppression: Quickly suppresses flames by rapidly reducing surface temperature.
Instant Cooling and Encapsulation: Rapidly cools the heat generated by lithium-ion battery fires, halting thermal runaway. This instant cooling helps prevent re-ignition and further damage.
Multi-class Fire Suppression: Capable of handling multiple fire classes, particularly Class A (ordinary combustibles), Class C (non-conductive fires) and Class D (metals/lithium battery fires).
All-Natural Formula: Composed of all-natural, non-corrosive, and non-abrasive ingredients. Safe for use in sensitive environments such as airports, industrial facilities, and residential areas without causing damage to equipment or surroundings.
Compatibility: Suitable for various fire suppression systems, including fixed systems, portable extinguishers, and fire engine tanks. Additionally, Ionex-EFX is developing an aerial application for wildfire management.
Environmental Benefits: Being all-natural, it leaves minimal environmental impact compared to traditional chemical extinguishers, supporting sustainability efforts.
