Abstract：

In case of fire, every minute counts! Intumescent coatings are one of the solutions developed to prevent the collapse of steel structures in buildings and allow people to escape safely. Compared to other passive fire protection technologies, there is no doubt that one of the advantages of intumescent coatings is their ability to preserve the aesthetics of the steel structures they are designed to protect. The choice of ingredients for their formulation is, of course, crucial to achieving the desired fire resistance. 
And the binder, as the key intumescent package (spumific, carbonific and catalyst), can greatly influence the performance. The binder not only provides the application properties of the coating and adhesion to the substrate, but also strongly impacts the durability of the system and char formation. 
This comprehensive study aims to advance passive fire protection technologies, offering valuable insights for coating manufacturers, architects, engineers, and fire safety professionals.
