Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers

How do Wet Chemical Extinguishers work?

Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers contains a solution of potassium which effectively attacks the flame in two methods:

1) the mist cools the fire and lowers the temperature to stop the fire spreading, also prevents splashing of the hot oils/fat.
