Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the thermal performance of an industrially manufactured solvent-borne intumescent coating in case of natural fires. The intumescent coating is originally designed to protect steel members in case of ISO-standard fire. In the first part of the study the thermal performance of the coating is evaluated for various heating rates using thermogravimetric analyses. It is demonstrated that the mass loss of the coating shows a clear dependency on the heating rate during the reaction step of intumescence. In the second part of the study the thermal insulation efficiency of the coating is investigated using small scale furnace tests with an innovative test setup. The tests show distinctively that the best fire protective performance is achieved for high heating rates.
