Passive Fire Protection Coatings Market
Passive Fire Protection (PFP) Coatings are specialized materials applied to structural elements (such as steel, concrete, or wood) to improve fire resistance without requiring activation (unlike sprinklers, which are active fire protection). Their purpose is to slow down the spread of fire, maintain structural integrity, and provide extra time for safe evacuation and firefighting efforts.
Here’s a breakdown:
🔥 Types of Passive Fire Protection Coatings
Intumescent Coatings
Expand (intumesce) when exposed to high heat, forming a thick, insulating char layer.
Protects steel and other substrates from reaching critical failure temperatures.
