intumescent

The thickness of this intumescent coating is dependent on the steel section used.

It is also used in some intumescent systems.

An intumescent agent may also be added.

Other functions include intumescent coatings for fire resistance.

After being lit, both fireworks begin to smoke and create ash resembling a snake via an intumescent reaction.

This is a cheaper option as compared to an intumescent one, but is very crude and aesthetically unpleasant.

Intumescent or expandable graphites are used in fire seals, fitted around the perimeter of a fire door.

Sodium silicates are inherently intumescent.

Intumescent fireproofing is a layer of paint which is applied along with the coating system on the structural steel members.

When intumescent seals are used in the door design, use of the correct seal is crucial in the fire rating performance the door assembly.

In addition to the above referenced items, DIBt has also published a standard for testing the longevity of intumescent products.

Intumescent coatings are applied as an intermediate coat in a coating system (primer, intermediate, and top/finish coat).

The intumescent resins in batt-based firestop pillows contains hydrates, or chemically bound water.

There are mainly two types of PFP : intumescent fire protection and vermiculite fire protection.

Most fire retardant coatings are intumescent, which means that they expand when heated, forming a solid foam with a charred surface that protects the wood it is on.

Intumescent additives are often employed; their role is to turn the polymer into a char, which separates the flame from the material and slows the heat transfer to the unburned fuel.

For countries that use a hose-stream test, the Fomox is reinforced with intumescent graphite, whereas for those who do not use a hose-stream, this ingredient is omitted.

The maintenance of structures with intumescent coatings should be carefully considered, particularly if there is a risk that the covering may be removed at some future time in the life of the building.

Putties can also be made intumescent, in which case they are used for firestopping as well as for padding of electrical outlet boxes in fire-resistance rated drywall assemblies.

Firetex M70/M71, Certifire approved, thin film intumescent coating gives up to 2 hours fire protection for structural steel, when tested to BS.476 Part 21: 1987.

The use of intumescent "windows", which shut in case of a fire, can reduce or negate the effect of ampacity derating, subject to listing and approval use and compliance.

Recent research focuses on application of different types of fire retardants during the manufacturing process as well as applications of fire retardants (especially intumescent coatings) at the finishing stage.

Fire-resistant glass glass using multi-layer intumescent technology or wire mesh embedded within the glass may be used in the fabrication of fire-resistance rated windows in walls or fire doors.

There are 'thin film' and 'thick film'materials, the former being generally described as intumescent paint and the latter as intumescent mastics.

Intumescent foam rubber firestops utilize Bayer Fomox intumescent foam, which can be extruded into various shapes.
