  • The second option:
  • - glass or plastic capacity;
  • - acetic essence;

Instruction

1. One of the best means for suppression of fire is tetrachloride carbon therefore we will manufacture the simple fire extinguisher on its basis. Prepare all ingredients. Aluminum alum and sernonatriyevy salt (it still call a glauberov salt) can be bought in pharmacy. All components of future fire extinguisher need to be ground carefully, and then to mix not less carefully among themselves. After that fill up the received mix in the prepared cardboard or glass capacity and densely seal. Mix has to be absolutely dry, do not allow hit of moisture in your self-made fire extinguisher. In case of ignition you will need to throw the prepared means into fire which will be brought down for several seconds. Such powder fire extinguisher can be not less effective, than a factory analog. It perfectly extinguishes even ignitions of oil, fat, gasoline which cannot be extinguished water.

2. If you did not find glauberovy salt or aluminum alum, it is possible to make simpler fire extinguisher in which carbon dioxide will become active ingredient. Prepare a plastic or glass container with lid. Fill it with acetic essence approximately on a third. Place a thick tissue on a capacity mouth and press down it a little so that in it small deepening turned out. Fill soda in this deepening. By means of an elastic band or an adhesive tape fix a napkin on capacity. You watch that vinegar did not wet a napkin with soda. Densely close the container with vinegar, a napkin and soda a cover. In case of ignition with a force shake the closed capacity. Vinegar and soda will enter reaction which will take place with rough release of carbon dioxide. Open a cover and splash out contents banks on fire. Carbon dioxide immediately will extinguish it.
