Influence of graphite additives on the swelling of reactive type fire protection coatings
Анотація
The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of graphite fillers (expandable graphite (EG) and swollen graphite (SG)) on the swelling efficiency of intumescent coatings: volume coefficient of swelling (K) and mass loss (Δm). The study is aimed at optimising reactive fire retardant systems composed of ammonium polyphosphate (APP)/ melamine (MA)/ pentaerythritol (PE)/ TiO2/ ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA).
