Many Flame Control coatings comply with federal, state and local building and fire code requirements. They retard flame spread and penetration of heat through their intumescent-sublimative-ablative and synergistic flame suppressing action. On contact with flame or excessive heat, Flame Control Intumescent Fire Retardant Coatings decompose and puff up (intumesce) forming a thick, dense, spongy foam layer that checks flame spread and retards heat penetration.
