Abstract

The ways of realization of the tasks of the applied topics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine on the creation of innovative technologies for fire protection of steel structures are discussed. The mechanisms for implementing the results of fundamental research in the development of passive fire protection means with subsequent implementation in industrial production and application in the construction industry are demonstrated. The factors affecting the fire protection efficiency of reactive coatings are considered: the nature of the polymer component, the ratio of the main components of the intumescent system, the content and structure of nano clay, etc. An algorithm for direct tests of fire protection efficiency in the process of developing an intumescent coating formulation is proposed. The obtained results are confirmed by full-scale fire tests conducted according to European and adapted national standards.
