New fire-protective intumescent coatings for wood
Polyurethane coatings are highly flammable, and because of their widespread applications on different substrates (wood, steel, and building materials), there is a need to increase their fire-safety properties. Intumescent additives sharply suppress the flammability properties of polyurethane coatings. Two problems accompany intumescent additives: their high loading percentage and incompatibility with polyurethane coatings. In this research, we succeeded in increasing the compatibility by mixing intumescent additives with a butyl acrylate polymer and in lowering the flame-retardant additive loading (up to 20%) by incorporating newly modified montmorillonite. The flammability properties of the new intumescent coatings were characterized with a cone calorimeter.
