The patent concerns the use of carbon or graphite microspheres as an extinguishant for metal fires. Carbon microspheres can be projected from a conventional powder extinguisher canister with flow and projection qualities that approximate those of a liquid. Since the microspheres have liquid-like flow properties, there is generally no problem with clogging or sticking within the extinguisher canister.
