These fluids are formulated to deter flame proliferation. It is important to note that these are not fireproof fluids. All oils will burn and continue to do so until appropriate suppression techniques are applied. Fire-resistant fluids, however, will cease burning once the heat source is removed. There are many types of fire-resistant fluids, ranging from water-glycol to special esters.
