Abstract

There is always the danger of fire in petroleum and gas industries. Fire destroys the steel structures of equipments. There are two methods to protect the equipments and steel structures against fire. One is the coatings which are based on intumeascent organic materials and are used for commercial and residential buildings with thermal resistance of up to 1000oC. The second type of coatings is based on inorganic material such as MICA and VERMICULITE, which are used in the industry and are suitable for temperatures above 1000oC. The aim of this investigation was to study the mineral based coatings; using an analysis on a commercial sample; produced with various FORMULATIONs and examined for fire protection properties by a direct flame experiment. X-ray analysis of the commercial sample showed that the main compounds for such coatings were VERMICULITE, MICA together with other components such as Portland cement and gypsum and Montmorilonite. Various percentages of these materials were mixed in order to produce a FORMULATION similar to that of the commercial one. A gas fired torch was directly used to heat one side of the samples having diameter 10 cm and thickness 3 cm. Three k-type thermocouples were used to measure the temperature on the other side. In all nine examined FORMULATIONs; two were found to have properties very similar to the imported commercial sample. Several FORMULATIONs and experiments were carried out & compared with the reference sample. Hence, the conductivity of (0.22W/moC) and heat capacity of (754.21kJ/kgoC) were achieved. These data were close to the reffernce standard.
