Classification method of fire retardant coatings

Fireproofing coatings can be classified as follows:
1. Classification by fire prevention mechanism

   Intumescent fire retardant coating:
       When exposed to fire, it expands to form a porous carbon layer (an expansion factor of up to 50 times) to isolate heat and oxygen.
       Application: Steel structures, wood structures (such as thin steel structure fire retardant coatings).
       Ingredients: Contains dehydration catalyst (such as ammonium polyphosphate), carbon forming agent (pentaerythritol), blowing agent (melamine).
   Non-intumescent fire retardant coating:
       The thermal insulation layer is formed by high-melting inorganic materials (such as aluminum hydroxide, borate).
       Application: Concrete structures, fire-resistant cables (such as thick steel structure fire-resistant coatings).

Understanding Intumescent Fireproof Sealant: Essential Information for Construction and Decoration

Intumescent fireproof sealant is a specialized material designed to enhance fire resistance in buildings. When exposed to heat, this sealant expands significantly, forming an insulating char layer that protects underlying structures from flames and heat. This unique behavior is what sets intumescent sealants apart from traditional fireproofing materials. One of the primary benefits of using intume
