A composition which retards the spread of fire, protects assets at risk from fire damage and emits a material which aids in extinguishing the fire. The composition may be either in the form of a gel or a foam and may be used to protect any sort of object, such as personal property, real property or even humans, from fire. The gel form of the composition contains urea or a urea derivative that retains water and releases CO2 upon heating. In addition, a rheology modifier containing carboxyl groups is also employed. The foam form of the composition contains the urea or urea derivative and the rheology modifier, along with a foam generator such as sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. A method of retarding fire comprises the coating of an item with the fire retardant such that the retardant protects the item from the fire and aids in extinguishing the fire by releasing carbon dioxide.

We claim: 1. A method for retarding the spread of fire comprising the step of coating an object with a composition comprising a material which retains an amount of water effective to protect a coated substrate from spread of fire for at least 115 seconds and produces carbon dioxide upon exposure to heat, a rheology modifying agent containing carboxyl groups, optionally a synthetic additive and, optionally a foam generator, wherein the material which produces carbon dioxide comprises at least one (hydroxyalkyl)urea. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the (hydroxyalkyl)urea comprises mono(hydroxyethyl)urea, N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)urea, tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)urea, tris(2-hydroxyethyl)urea, N,N'-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)urea, N,N'-(3-hydroxypropyl)urea, N,N'-bis(4-hydroxybutyl)urea, 2-urea-2-ethyl-1,3-propanediol, saccharide ureas, 4,5-dihydroxyethylene urea, or mixtures thereof. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the (hydroxyalkyl)urea is N, N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)urea. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the rheology modifying agent comprises a copolymer or homopolymer containing a carboxyl group and is capable of building viscosity above pH 6.5. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein at least a portion of the rheology modifying agent comprises acrylic emulsion thickeners, potato starch, starch modified thickeners, polyurethanes, alkali swellable emulsion thickeners, poly(acrylic) acid, poly(methacrylic) acid, copolymers of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, hydrophobically modified alkali swellable emulsions which have a pH adjusted to above 6.5. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the hydrophobically modified alkali swellable emulsions are selected from the group consisting of acrylates/stearath-20 itaconate copolymer, and acrylates/ceteth-20 itaconate copolymer and mixtures thereof. 7. The method of claim 5, wherein the composition is in the form of a gel. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the synthetic additive comprises crosslinked compositions, polyvinyl alcohol, or mixtures thereof. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the composition is in the form of a foam. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the foam generator comprises sodium bicarbonate and one or more of citric acid, octenyl succinic anhydride modified starches, dextrins, or gums, dodecynl succinic anhydride modified starches, dextrins, or gums or mixtures thereof.
