abstract="The fire-inhibiting behavior of polyisobutylene (PIB) solutions in JP-5 jet fuel has been examined using a rotating disk mist generator combined with an ignition source. The correlation of the mass median diameters (MMD) of fuel mists with their fire-inhibiting behavior is discussed and a preliminary analysis of the data usinf the concept of an antimisting factor, in analogy to earlier drag reduction work, is attempted. The effect of molecular weight on the MMD is also presented. The concentration dependence of the MMD for PIB solutions in JP-5 is compared with a proprietary fire-inhibiting formulation.<p />",
