The intumescent paints are special coatings formulated with substances that undergo a significant expansion when exposed to heat or fire, forming an insulating barrier that protects underlying materials from high temperatures. These coatings are primarily used in fire protection applications to enhance the fire resistance of structures by slowing the spread of fire and maintaining structural integrity. They are applied to those structures that require a high level of safety (like public buildings, schools, theaters, airports, stations, hotels, warehouse, etc.).
RAVEMUL T37 is a high-performance terpolymer water-based dispersion of vinyl acetate and vinyl esters, ideal for intumescent paints, offering excellent hydrophobicity, alkali resistance, and weathering durability. Intumescent paints based on RAVEMUL T37 stand out by offering excellent storage stability, higher foam expansion factor and excellent durability for both internal and semi-exposed conditions. RAVEMUL T37, appropriately formulated, acts as a passive fire barrier.
