Short title	Portable agents cool, blanket, coat, inhibit chemistry or reduce oxygen.
Image title	Four panels. Cooling: water drops on a burning solid absorb heat; concern: live parts and hot oil. Blanketing: foam covers a liquid pool and holds back vapour; concern: the blanket can break down. Coating and chemistry: powder particles enter the flame and coat the fuel surface; concern: residue and reduced visibility. Oxygen reduction: gas from a cylinder lowers oxygen in an enclosure; concern: breathing hazard. Each agent uses its own mechanisms, and compatibility must be checked for every fuel and setting.
