Abstract

Description of the behavior of fireproof means and coatings, including those swelling, in the moment of the formation of a thermal insulating structure is a special and complex task. In general, it covers both stages of the process of thermal protection: both heat transfer and subsequent swelling of the coating, which is formed during fire protection. In necessitates studying conditions for the formation of barrier to thermal conductivity and the establishment of a mechanism of fire protection from layer to a layer of coke. Given this, we examined the process of fire protection with work of an impregnating solution and at swelling of a fireproof coating. Data that we obtained revealed that the formation of volatile products under the effect of coating at high temperature occurs with the formation of noncombustible substances. We established experimentally that under the action of heat flow on the fireproof samples, intense release of inert gases occurs, as well as a reduction in the combustible, which leads to the effectiveness of fire protection in reverse order. It was found in the course of conducted tests that the intensity of the formation of noncombustible gases shifts toward elevated temperature with the formation of coked cellular material. Results of determining a swelling capacity of coating for the intumescent system demonstrated that under the influence of high-temperature flow, material combustion and weight loss of the coating is reduced by more than twice due to the formation of high-temperature compounds; in this case, the time to reach a limit temperature grows as well. A coating under the influence of high temperature forms a significant coefficient of swelling, contributes to the formation of a thermal insulating layer of coke, which prevents wood from burning, as well as the passage of high temperature to the material. In general, the efficiency of wood fire protection revealed that the goods belong to the materials that are difficult to combust, which spread the flame over surface slowly and with low smoke-generating capacity.
