The concentrates utilized for generating fluoroprotein foams are similar in composition to protein foam concentrates, but in addition to protein polymers they contain fluorinated surface-active agents that confer a "fuel shedding" property to the foam generated. This makes them particularly effective for fire fighting conditions where the foam becomes coated with fuel, such as in the method of sub-surface injection of foam for tank fire fighting, and nozzle or monitor foam applications where the foam may often be plunged into the fuel. 2, record 1, English, - fluoroprotein%20foam%20concentrate
