Water-miscible liquids are mixable in water. The technical grade material may be initially water miscible, or it may be alcohol miscible and formulated with an alcohol to become water miscible. These formulations resemble the emulsifiable concentrates in viscosity and color, but do not become milky when diluted with water. Few home and garden pesticides are sold as water miscibles, since few of the pesticides that are safe for home use have these physical characteristics. Water-miscible liquids are labeled as water-soluble concentrate (WSC), liquid (L), soluble concentrate (SC), or solution (S). 2, record 1, English, - water%2Dmiscible%20liquid

While a number of different types of foam are commercially available for fighting chemical fires, only two types of foam are considered in this book: "ordinary" foam, such as AFFF or protein foam and "alcohol" foam, i.e., alcohol resistant foam. "Alcohol" foam is recommended for some water miscible and some miscible flammable liquids which tend to break down other foams. In cases where a doubt exists as to the requirement for or efficiency of "alcohol" foam, "ordinary" foam is recommended. 1, record 2, English, - water%20miscible%20liquid

Il existe sur le marché différents types de mousses utilisées pour combattre les incendies d'origine chimique, [parmi lesquelles se trouvent] [...] la mousse "ordinaire", telle celle qui forme un film flottant (AFFF) ou mousse protéinée et la mousse "alcoolisée" (mousse résistante à l'alcool). L'utilisation de la mousse alcoolisée est conseillée pour certains liquides qui sont miscibles avec l'eau et certains liquides inflammables non miscibles qui tendent à désagréger d'autres mousses. 1, record 2, French, - liquide%20miscible%20avec%20l%27eau
