Overview
This waterborne intumescent coating route is intended for structural-steel fire-protection evaluations. The coating forms an insulating char under heat; system selection remains tied to the applicable design and test basis.
Cowin Materials does not publish a time rating for this product without the matching approved report, section factor, coating build, primer, topcoat and test standard.
- Steel section
- Identify the member geometry and applicable section factor.
- Dry-film build
- Match coating thickness, primer and topcoat to the approved specification.
- Test standard
- Confirm the target standard and rating against evidence for that configuration.
Typical applications: Steel factories, Petrochemical frames, Power facilities, Commercial steel.
