Experimental Research on the Performance of the Macromolecule Colloid Fire-Extinguishing Material for Coal Seam Spontaneous Combustion

الملخص EN

Coal resources are rich in China.

They are mainly concentrated in the northwest region.

But these resources also make the situation of spontaneous coal combustion hazards most serious in this area.

Affected by the arid and semiarid climate, the water resource in this area is relatively scarce.

In order to improve the utilization rate of water, a macromolecule colloid for coal mine fire fighting was developed in this research.

The main components of the macromolecule colloid and the principle of gel formation were analyzed.

The physical and chemical properties of the macromolecule colloid were analyzed by the time of gelation and the water loss.

The water content of the macromolecule colloid was as high as 99%.

The inhibition performance of the macromolecule colloid on coal fire was studied by the programmed heating device.

The experimental results show that the macromolecule colloid has a significant inhibitory effect on the heating rate, oxygen consumption rate, and gas production rate.

It inhibits the coal-oxygen composite by increasing the activation energy (Ea) of coal, which also has the effect of wrapping coal to isolate oxygen.

The inhibition performance of the macromolecule colloid on coal fire disasters is better than that of water, water glass, loess compound colloids, and other traditional fire-extinguishing materials.
