Development of a polymer heat-insulating fire-resistant coating filled with industrial waste
Incoming article date: 11.04.2020The results of the development of a polymer coating with high heat-insulating and fire-resistant characteristics containing waste from galvanic production are presented. This coating is designed for thermal insulation and fire protection of concrete and metal surfaces of various building structures and industrial equipment. The coating is developed on the basis of siloxane rubber, K-18 catalyst, hollow carbon microspheres and industrial waste - galvanic sludge used as a flame retardant. The use of hollow carbon microspheres provides an increase in the strength and thermal insulation properties of the coating. The use of galvanic slurry in the amount of 5-15 parts by weight it allows to obtain the effect of self-extinguishing of the heat-insulating coating, reducing the burning time without compromising the operational properties - strength, adhesion, while solving another important problem - the safe disposal of galvanic sludge. Studies have shown that the use of this composition allows you to get a relatively inexpensive, but quite effective polymer coating with good thermal insulation, flame retardant and physico-mechanical properties.
