Fire-protection composition, multi-component system and use of the same
A fire protection composition contains a binder on the basis of an alkoxysilane-functionalized polymer and a liquid carbon supplier. The fire protection composition allows application in a simple and rapid manner of coatings having the layer thickness required for the particular fire resistance time, the layer thickness being reduced to a minimum while achieving a good fireproofing effect. The fire-protection composition is formulated as a multi-component system. The fire-protection composition is particularly suitable for fire protection, especially as a coating of construction elements such as steel carriers.
1. A fire-protection composition, comprising:
an alkoxysilane-functional polymer, which contains, as terminal groups and/or as side groups along a polymer chain, alkoxy-functional silane groups of the general formula (I)
Si(R 1 ) m (OR 2 ) 3-m (I),
wherein R 1 stands for a linear or branched C 1 -C 16 alkyl moiety, R 2 for a linear or branched C 1 -C 6 alkyl moiety, and m for an integer from 0 to 2,
a dehydrogenation catalyst,
a liquid carbon source selected from the group consisting of a liquid polyester polyol, and a liquid epoxy compound, and
optionally a blowing agent,
wherein the alkoxysilane-functional polymer is separated from the liquid carbon source to ensure inhibition of reaction.
2. The fire-protection composition according to claim 1 , wherein the alkoxysilane-functional polymer comprises a basic backbone, which is selected from the group consisting of a polyether, polyester, polyether ester, polyamide, polyurethane, polyester urethane, polyether urethane, polyether ester urethane, polyamide urethane, polyurea, polyamine, polycarbonate, polyvinyl ester, polyacrylate, polyolefin, polyisobutylene, polysulfide, rubber, neoprene, phenol resin, epoxy resin and melamine.
3. The fire-protection composition according to claim 2 , wherein the basic backbone of the alkoxysilane-functional polymer is a polyether or a polyurethane.
4. The fire-protection composition according to claim 1 , wherein the alkoxysilane-functional polymer carries at least 2 alkoxy functional silane groups.
5. The fire-protection composition according to claim 1 , further comprising an additional non-liquid carbon source, which is likewise separated from the alkoxysilane-functional polymer to ensure inhibition of reaction.
6. The fire-protection composition according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one cross-linking agent.
7. The fire-protection composition according to claim 6 , further comprising a co-cross-linking agent.
