Abstract

The Halons have long been recognised as uniquely effective fire extinguishing agents, but are now known to contribute towards ozone layer depletion. In accordance with the latest terms of the Montreal protocol, Halon production will be totally phased out by the year 2000 but this is expected to be brought forward such that Halons 1211 & 1301 may not be available from January 1994.
