palonsuojakateet
Palonsuojakateet, often translated as fire retardant coatings or intumescent coatings, are substances applied to materials to enhance their resistance to fire. When exposed to heat, these coatings undergo a chemical reaction that forms an insulating char layer. This char layer slows down the transfer of heat to the underlying material, delaying its ignition and preventing rapid flame spread.
The effectiveness of palonsuojakateet varies depending on their composition and the type of material they are
Palonsuojakateet are typically applied as paints, sprays, or wraps. Their use is often mandated by building
