This study investigates a wide range of substances to discover a high quality quenching medium. The medium must have the possibility of variation of cooling ability, fire resistance, and nontoxicity, and be available, simple, and safe. Surfactants, liquids, organosilicon compounds, and water soluble polymerics were surveyed and rejected. In aqueous solutions the cooling properties worsened during heating. Modified celluloses (polyethylenepolymine) and sulfite liquor were also studied. These were determined to be the most promising quenching media, and were tested and detailed.
