SPECIAL FEATURES
FSF-AN1 is able to quickly smother and extinguish fires, as well as cool heated materials when applied as a foam.
FSF-AN1 can change from a liquid to a foam state when the compound is put under extreme pressure.
FSF-AN1 can act as a sealant when in a foam state, not allowing the passage of gases through (unless the foam is breached).
FSF-AN1 actively expands when in a foam state to fill in holes or punctures in the sealant.
Adding liquid nitrogen to FSF-AN1 in its foam state will cause it to melt back into a liquid, which is used by cleanup crews after a fire has been extinguished.
STRENGTHS
Fire-be-Gone: FSF-AN1 is able to quickly extinguish fires and cool heated materials, making it an excellent fire suppression agent. Because of its characteristic as a foam agent, FSF-AN1 can smother fires quickly and
Fixer-Upper: FSF-AN1 can act as a sealant to fill in hull breaches, blocking the escape of oxygen and preventing the formation of a vacuum. This creates a safe and breathable environment for repair workers to work in, and prevents further catastrophic damage that usually occurs with hull breaches.
Fill in the Blanks: Punctures in sealant by small munition rounds (bullets, etc.) are automatically filled in by the expansive nature of the FSF-AN1 foam, and can even be absorbed/bounce back small munition rounds depending on the amount of the foam agent that is present in the munition’s strike zone.
Quick Clean Up: While scraping off the hardened foam would be a chore, repair crews only have to spray liquid nitrogen onto FSF-AN1 foam to have it revert back to liquid state.
Turn up the Pressure: FSF-AN1 is created in a liquid state, but can only be applied as a foam to seal hulls or extinguish fires. Because of this, FSF-AN1 is essentially useless without a pressure valve to discharge
Not Insta-Armor: While the foam state can seal compromised hulls, FSF-AN1 is by no means on the same protective level as durasteel or other conventional forms of armor. FSF-AN1 has little or no resistance to conventional weaponry (except for heat-based weapons).
We need more: The ability for FSF-AN1 to suppress fires, fill in hull breaches, and absorb munition rounds is proportional to the amount of FSF-AN1 used in the situation. The less of the agent, the less effective it will be.
Not reusable: While the foam of FSF-AN1 can quickly and easily be restored to a liquid state for clean-up, the resulting mixture of FSF-AN1 and Nitrogen is unable to be reused and must instead be disposed of.
DESCRIPTION
A fast-acting chemical that can act as both a fire suppressant and sealant, the FSF-AN1 is a chemical solution that acts as a ship’s best friend. Created by Roble Manufacturing for use of emergencies such as onboard ship fires, hull breaches and as a quick-fix during combat, FSF-AN1 has the capacity to be a multipurpose fix-it tool for repair crews and fire safety officers alike. Stored and transported in a liquid state, discharging FSF-AN1 through a pressure valve turns the chemical into a cooling, heat-resistant foam that can quickly harden to both smother fires and quickly seal hull breaches, although it is by no means a permanent fix. To revert the foam back to its original liquid state, it simply requires liquid nitrogen and thus makes cleaning up the foam in the aftermath fairly simple. The foam produced by FSF-AN1 is non-toxic, however both the foam and liquid states of FSF-AN1 should not be ingested.
