Influence of nano-TiO2 in thermal behavior of fire-resistant coating
Thermal Behavior of Nano-TiO2 in Fire-Resistant Coating

The dispersion state of nano-TiO2 particles was studied by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM)and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Nanoparticles can be fully dispersed by specific hyperdispersant. The improvement of nano-TiO2 in thermal behavior and flame retardation of acrylic polymer and fire-resistant coating was investigated by differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry (TG)and fire-resistant time test. It is demonstrated that nano-TiO2 is helpful for enhancing the thermal stability,anti-oxidation and fire-resistant properties of acrylic polymer and fire-resistant coating.
