Overview

About Epoxy intumescent coating (hydrocarbon fire)

Built up in several millimetres, often with reinforcement mesh at corners and edges.

Forms a hard, dense char that resists the turbulence of hydrocarbon and jet fires.

Part of a corrosion-protection system with primer and topcoat.

Key benefits

  • Hydrocarbon and jet-fire protection in one system
  • Very high durability, impact and weather resistance
  • Corrosion protection and fire protection together
  • Lighter than concrete or heavy sprays

How we use Epoxy intumescent coating (hydrocarbon fire) in steel buildings

World Steel can apply the primer and intumescent coating in our blasting and painting shop, so members arrive at site already fire-protected – thickness per member from the fire engineer's schedule, recorded in the coating report.

  • 01Specified with the structure – thickness, density and facing matched to the roof, wall and fire design.
  • 02Quantities taken from the same 3D model as the steel, purlins and cladding.
  • 03Packed and shipped with the steel package – one delivery schedule to site.

Applications

Where Epoxy intumescent coating (hydrocarbon fire) is used

  • Oil & gas, petrochemical and LNG plants
  • Pipe racks, vessel skirts, process modules
  • Offshore and coastal industrial structures
