abstract |
There is described an intumescent composition containing a polyurea-based binder. The composition of the invention, the rate of expansion is relatively high, coatings can be applied in a simple and fast way with the necessary for the respective fire resistance layer thickness, the layer thickness is reduced to a minimum and yet a large insulating effect can be achieved. The composition of the invention is particularly suitable for fire protection, in particular as a coating of metallic and non-metallic substrates, such as steel components, such as columns, beams, truss rods, to increase the fire resistance period. |
