Using fireproofing paint is currently the most optimal and economical method in fire prevention for constructions. This is the paint chosen by most businesses and families to protect buildings. So what is fireproof paint and how does it work? The following article will give you the answer.

Fire retardant paint is composed of Acrylic compound, rice husk or Epoxy and some other additives. This is the material used in the construction for the purpose of economical and effective fire prevention. The coating mechanism will form a protective layer after coating the surface of the material to be flame retardant. This fireproofing paint is especially suitable for iron and steel structures, helping the material to avoid the effects of fire when there is a fire, which can prolong the time it takes for firefighters to respond.

This paint works on the principle of temperature sensing: It will automatically increase the thickness of the paint film, creating a protective layer that prevents the heat of the flame from contacting the steel surface. At the same time, the fireproofing paint will produce a non-flammable, non-toxic gas to maintain the steel structure's temperature below 400 degrees Celsius. This ensures that the building's frame can be kept stable for 2-3 hours when there is a fire.

In addition to bringing high efficiency, fireproofing paint also has outstanding advantages that prove its importance and necessity for the project:

• High degree of security.

• Easy to use.

• Can be applied to both interior and outdoor architecture, as well as in a variety of weather conditions.

• Withstands temperatures up to 1000 degrees Celsius.

• Some fire retardant paints have a heat resistance period of up to 3 hours.

• Reasonable cost, optimal saving on fire prevention and fighting costs.

Current fireproofing paint is an effective solution to increase heat resistance, effective fire resistance, and this is also a method to ensure the beauty of the building. In addition, fireproof paint is cheap, easy to use,... Those are the advantages that make this paint line present in most construction projects today. Hope our article has convinced you about the important of fireproof paints.
