Intumescent "Instant Firewalls" for Low-Cost Fire Protection
Category: Security
Overview Intumescent materials respond to impingement of a fire by swelling and forming a protective char that physically and thermally protects the structure. Intumescent materials have been used (or investigated for use) in various military platforms for all three Services. Trade-offs must be made between the various features and requirements most important to the platform. The objective of this project is to demonstrate and optimize the utilization of intumescent technologies to form "Instant firewalls" to control, contain, and manage damage-related fires in compartments. The effort will also identify and evaluate the potential for use on unmanned aerial vehicles and other customers needing low-cost protection.
