## Abstract

A fire prevention coating formula is applied to surfaces in order to reduce and prevent the spread of fires across the applied surfaces. The homogeneous coating mixture is applied to surfaces through spraying or painting means. When heated, the fire prevention coating formula forms a thick, stable, passivating oxide layer protecting the surface from further reaction.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A composition for preventing fires comprising a quantity of alumina;
a quantity nanoscale particles of nickel/iron/chromium alloy ranging from 100-200 nm with specific surface area in the 30 to 70 m2/g range; a quantity of water;
a quantity of cobalt naphthalene;
a quantity of rosin ester;
a quantity of acetone;
a quantity of 4-chlorobenzotriflouride;
a quantity of zinc borate;
a quantity of borate; and
a quantity of polyurethane;
all mixed together.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1, applied to a surface of one of the following substrates wood, polymers, metals, fabrics, fiberglass and plastic.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1, which expands when flames and radiant heat have entered the substrate surface.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1, which when applied to a surface of wood, polymer, metal, fabric, fiberglass and plastic absorbs into the surface.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1, applied to surfaces through painting or spraying methods to provide consistent fire prevention properties across the surface.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1, wherein the percentage weight of each of the elements is approximately the following:
1.37% by weight of alumina;
3.2% by weight of nanoscale particles of nickel/iron/chromium alloy ranging from 100-200 nm with specific surface area in the 30 to 70 m2/g range;
0.40% by weight of water;
0.6% by weight of cobalt naphthalene;
1.8% by weight of rosin ester;
401% by weight of acetone;
8.5% by weight of 4-chlorobenzotriflouride;
0.005% by weight of zinc borate;
0.457% by weight of borate; and
43.568% by weight of polyurethane.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1, which also includes a quantity of Inconel alloy.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1, which also includes a quantity of cobalt, magnesium, molybdenum and phosphorus.

### Claim 9

A method of manufacturing a formulation to inhibit combustion of a surface of wood, polymer, metal, fabric, fiberglass and plastic comprising the following steps:
rosin ester is mixed with acetone and stirred until dissolved;
4-chlorobenzotrifluoride and cobalt naphthalene in mineral spirits is added;
borate solution is added;
zinc borate is added and the mixture is sonicated until fully dissolved;
alumina and nanoscale particles of nickel/iron/chromium alloy ranging from 100-200 nm with specific surface area in the 30 to 70 m2/g range powder is added; and
polyurethane is added.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The method of claim 9, wherein a quantity of cobalt, magnesium, molybdenum and phosphorus is added to the mixture.
