N2  - In an attempt to select an appropriate fire-resistant hydraulic fluid for use in Naval applications, two approaches were used: (1) development of a shear-resistant, drag-reducing colloid dispersion to determine if it had anti-misting properties, and (2) use of a water-in-oil emulsion loaded to high levels of water. While the dispersion of lithium phenylstearate colloid had demonstrated high drag reducing activity in previous work and would therefore presumably exhibit anti-misting characteristics, it failed to produce the desired fire-suppressive effect. The water-in-oil emulsion, on the other hand, showed promising fire-resistant properties in a flammability testing device.<p />
