Fire retardant coatings manufacturer in pune

We are specialized in manufacturing Fire retardant coatings. Product widely being used as fire retardant for buildings, furniture, electrical appliances, electrical lines and near flammable area to avoid fire hazards. We have separate coatings for walls, wood, cable and steel. For steel we have different coatings for interior atmosphere and exterior atmosphere. The fire ratings of the coating depend on the thickness of the coating and are directly proportional to the thickness. Fire rating means the surface will be protected for that much time. These ratings are 30 minutes, 60 minutes, and 120 minutes or half hour, one hour and two hours. The purpose is for getting the time till help arrives to protect property and lives. These coatings require fire rated primer followed by fire retardant intermediate coating and then finally the topcoat on the top. Primer is applied in single coat and is different for different surfaces. Intermediate coating thickness is different for different ratings and different surfaces. The topcoat requires two coats. The topcoat is necessary for protection of intermediate coat and also for providing aesthetic value to the surface. We provide the test certificate for each batch we produce and the tests are done as per ASTM test procedures.

FEATURES

It is specially prepared for getting fire retardant properties in wood. Wood is flammable itself by nature. When there is fire in the vicinity and the temperature reaches 400 degrees C, wood gets self ignited. And the reaction of fire starts spreading. To prevent such heat transfer and to block the oxygen from reaching to the surface these type of intumescent coatings are used. These are useful on all types of wood but since these are opaque, the wood grains are not visible after coating these coatings on wood.

HOW IT WORKS

It forms foam when temperature reaches 250 degrees Celsius. This foam is heat and fire resistant and almost non conductive. During the foam forming reaction, some inert gasses are released. These gasses keep Oxygen away from wood. The foam thus formed keeps the surface away from heat and hence does not allow the surface to receive or conduct the heat in other areas. Also since this forms foam and a charred layer, it does not allow oxygen to reach to the surface over which it is applied. Hence it protects the surface from catching fire. UGAMCOAT06022007 requires its UGAM FIRE RETARDANT PRIMER to be applied first, followed by application of UGAMCOAT06022007 to the specified thickness with respect to rating required and then finally two coats of UGAM F R TOPCOAT WOOD.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE

First clean the surface with emery papers. In case old paint or primer which is not fire rated is applied to the wood, remove it with paint remover or mechanically. Then apply single coat of UGAM F R PRIMER for wood. The primer can be thinned down with pure clean soft water. Primer can be applied with brush or spray. Then after minimum four hours interval apply first coat of UGAMCOAT06022007 with brush, roller or airless spray to the surface. Allow four hours for drying. Then apply second coat of UGAMCOAT06022007 to the surface and again allow four hours for drying. Likewise go on applying the coats of UGAMCOAT06022007 to the surface till you achieve dry film thickness of 700 microns for one hour rating OR 1500 microns for two hours rating. After application of final coat of UGAMCOAT06022007 to the surface allow 24 hours curing. Then apply first coat of UGAM F R TOPCOAT WOOD in desired color shade over UGAMCOAT06022007 for protecting fire retardant coating from weather. Allow it to cure for six hours and apply second coat of UGAM F R TOPCOAT WOOD. This can be applied with roller, brush or spray. The surface will now be ready after 12 hours for regular use. This coating is warranted for five years or first incidence of fire from the date of application. In case surface is exposed to fire, the coating should be re-applied to the surface.
