Ultra-thin fireproof coating and thin fireproof coating are two common fireproof materials. Although their names are similar, there are some differences in composition,
characteristicsand application range.
Here are the main differences between the two coatings:
Element: Ultra-thin fire-resistant coatings are usually composed of high-temperature refractory materials, cement, organic adhesives, etc., and use the heat insulation and flame-retardant effects formed by the film layer to protect objects from fire threats. Thin fireproof coating is a composite material composed of flame retardant, fireproof adhesive, stabilizer, etc. Its flame retardant effect depends on the chemical reaction and the gas released by special additives to maintain fire insulation.
Fire performance: Ultra-thin fire retardant coatings mainly rely on the formation of film layers to achieve heat insulation and flame retardant effects. The fire protection time is generally 1 hour or 2 hours, depending on different application requirements. Thin fire retardant coatings form a fire barrier through special chemical reactions and release mechanisms, which can form a closed barrier at high temperatures in a fire, effectively delaying the spread of fire, and usually have longer fire resistance.
Applications: The ultra-thin fireproof coating is mainly suitable for the fireproof treatment of the structure of buildings and the surface of decorative materials, such as steel structures, concrete walls, wood, etc., and can be applied by brushing or spraying. Thin fire retardant coatings are widely used in fire protection of various buildings and engineering facilities, such as commercial buildings, residences, power equipment, petrochemicals, etc. They can be used in the form of coating, spraying, etc.
Construction requirements: Ultra-thin fireproof coatings have good adhesion and durability, but conditions such as smooth surface and no shedding must be ensured during construction to ensure the coating effect. Thin fireproof coatings usually require a professional construction team for construction to ensure the sealing and curing effect of the coating. Before construction, it is necessary to carry out surface treatment on the base, and strictly follow the product instructions for construction to ensure its fireproof performance.
To sum up, there are differences between ultra-thin fireproof coatings and thin fireproof coatings in composition, fireproof performance, application range and construction requirements. According to specific needs and application scenarios, choosing a suitable fire-resistant coating can better protect objects from fire threats.
