Is fire extinguishing foam corrosive?
Yes. Firefighting foam is normally used in diluted form - 1-6% foam and 94-99% water, depending on the application. This reduces its corrosive effects, but the pure agent can be quite damaging to equipment over time. Eg: On the Antarctic FD (Mcmurdo Station, Antarctica) we bought 4 new air rescue firefighting vehicles in 2005 which we filled with a non-freezing undiluted foam/antifreeze mix. When we attempted to use the vehicles for the first time in 2007, the brass fittings on the foam lines blew apart in several places as soon as they were charged, rendering the truck useless. This was due to corrosion by the foam agent, which had leaked past the check valves and filled the foam lines for an extended time.
