Intumescents are the substances which expand when exposed to extremely high heat and fire, increasing in volume and decreasing in density. The intumescent coating layer expands and produces a ‘char’ which insulates the material inside from flames by cutting off the oxygen necessary for combustion. Due to these properties, intumescents are used as a coating material to protect substances from heat and fire damage. The intumescent coating has diverse applications in a number of different industries as a fireproofing agent and its market is growing at a fast pace. The rising demand from various end-use industries is expected to fuel the intumescent coating market to growth at a CAGR of 4.6%%%% over a period from 2016 to 2024.
