The invention relates to a composition which forms an insulating layer and which contains a binder based on epoxy-thiol. The composition according to the invention, which has a relatively high expansion rate, allows simple and rapid application of coatings having the layer thickness required for the particular fire resistance rating, it being possible to reduce the layer thickness to a minimum and nevertheless achieve a good insulating effect. The composition according to the invention is particularly suitable for fire-proofing, especially as a coating for metallic and non-metallic substrates, for instance steel components such as pillars, beams and truss bars, for increasing the fire resistance rating. |
