  1. halon

    Halon is a type of gas commonly used in fire extinguishers due to its ability to stop the chemical reaction that allows a fire to continue burning. It is a clean agent that leaves no residue, making it ideal for controlling fires in rooms that contain delicate electrical equipment. However, due to concerns about its contribution to ozone depletion, the production of new halon has been discontinued and existing supplies are being carefully managed and recycled.
