Same principle but different fire scenarios - requiring different fireproofing specifications
Hydrocarbon Fire Scenario
Hydrocarbon PFP (Passive Fire Protection) coatings are used extensively throughout the Petrochemical and Offshore industries to protect structures from the constant danger of hydrocarbon fires. This type of coating expands upon exposure to heat into an insulating protective char that prevents steel from heating up rapidly and delays the loss of load-bearing capacity and integrity, thereby allowing crucial time for personnel to escape. PITT-CHAR XP is a solvent-free epoxy intumescent coating which provides excellent protection against intense hydrocarbon pool and jet fires. First launched in 1983, our product has more real-time history than any other epoxy intumescent coating available today, with hundreds of projects successfully completed globally. Its unique flexibility also protects against mechanical abuse and ensures intact fire protection after explosive incidents.
Cellulosic Fire Scenario
STEELGUARD is a complete range of intumescent coating systems for various grades of fire
protection, climatic exposure conditions and application techniques. These coatings are specifically formulated to provide superb fire protection for civil buildings, such as shopping centres, business centres, airport terminals, sports stadia and schools. They are ideally suited for today’s architects and designers, providing an extremely smooth surface which can be top-coated with colours to suit a wide range of aesthetic requirements. Similar to the Hydrocarbon Fire Scenario the coating expands upon exposure to heat into an insulating protective char that prevents steel from heating up rapidly.
