Abstract
A composition which is particularly adapted for coating structural surfaces to provide them with a thermal carrier to protect them from the detrimental effects of fire comprises an aqueous mixture of (a) lithium mica, (b) wollastonite, (c) aluminum trihydrate, (d) nepheline syenite, and (e) soda bicarbonate. The composition may be diluted with water to facilitate application. The composition may also contain raw vermiculite, sodium aluminum sulfate, borax, calcium sulfate, sodium silicate and other additives to improve the fireproofing, insulating and/or structural strength properties of the material.

A composition which is particularly adapted for coating surfaces to provide them with a thermal barrier coating to protect them from the detrimental effects of fire which is comprised of an aqueous blend consisting essentially of (a) 5-25 volume percent lithium mica, (b) 1-60 volume percent wollastonite, (c) 1-50 volume percent aluminum trihydrate, (d) 25-70 volume percent nepheline syenite, (e) 1/2-3 volume percent sodium bicarbonate, (f) 10-15 volume percent sodium aluminum sulfate, (g) 1-15 volume percent borax, (h) 10-25 volume percent raw vermiculite, (i), 5-55 volume percent sodium silicate and water, the total water in the blend being less than about 30 volume percent.
A composition particularly adapted for coating structural surfaces to provide them with a coating that insulates, protects from the detrimental effects of fire, and lends structural strength to the surfaces, which comprises about 18% lithium mica;
- about 30% nepheline syenite;
- about 9% wollastonite;
- about 2% aluminum trihydrate;
- about 2% sodium aluminum sulfate;
- about 15% vermiculite about 2-6% of calcium sulfate;
- about 1/2-3% of bicarbonate of soda;
- about 3% borax;
- about 12% of sodium silicate and sufficient water to bring the volume to 100%.
