PLATINUM PLUS C6 3-6% AR-AFFF (Model BFC-36.6)
3-6% ALCOHOL RESISTANT AQUEOUS FILM-FORMING FOAM CONCENTRATE.
OVERVIEW – C6 TECHNOLOGY
The environmentally friendly Buckeye Platinum Plus C6 3-6% AR-AFFF foam concentrate has been specifically formulated using new, short-chain C6 fluorochemicals. This advanced C6 formulation does not contain PFOS and based on analytical testing in accordance with the goals of the US EPA 2010/15 PFOA Stewardship Program, the PFOA content is less than 10 ppb (parts per billion). As of 4 July 2020, the REACH limit is 25 ppb (parts per billion) for PFOA.
Buckeye Platinum Plus C6 3-6% AR-AFFF is an advanced, totally synthetic, aqueous film-forming foam concentrate designed to form a vapor suppressing aqueous film on Class B hydrocarbon type fuels or a polymeric membrane on polar solvent (water miscible) type fuels. It is intended for use at a proportioning rate of 3% (3 parts AR-AFFF concentrate to 97 parts water) on Class B hydrocarbon type fuels such as gasoline, kerosene and diesel. Buckeye Platinum Plus C6 3-6% AR-AFFF is also intended for use at a 6% proportioning rate (6 parts AR-AFFF concentrate to 94 parts water) on polar solvent (water miscible) fuels such as alcohols, ketones and esters.
