How is it applied?

There is no special training necessary to apply Contego’s PFB thin film intumescent latex. Anyone who can paint a wall can also easily fireproof it at the same time.

You don’t need special equipment. Any type of airless sprayer, brush, roller or mitt will do.

Forget special preparation costs! As long as the substrate* is clean, dry, and oil-free, Contego’s advanced polymers will bond.

*(Steel must be primed with red oxide or equivalent.)*(Steel must be primed with red oxide or equivalent.)

A Revolution In Protection . . .

Contego’s Passive Fire Barrier (PFB) primer/finish is one of the most powerful, important technologies ever developed!

Contego is Latin for “To shield, to guard, or to protect.”

• Familiar latex base – no more toxic solvent base – no acidic smell.

• Super thin, aesthetic appearance – no more “oatmeal” look.

• Significant savings in terms of applied cost per square foot.

• Top coat it with any acrylic enamel for the perfect finish.

• Bonds tightly to almost any kind of substrate.

• Thoroughly tested and laboratory certified.

• Can be factory applied or applied on site.

• Requires no special preparation.

Page 20: Contegofirebarrier Intumescent Latex

What is it?

When exposed to high heat or fire, Contego’s Passive Fire Barrier thin film primer/finish swells or “intumesces” forming a tough char barrier that stops the fire by blocking access to the fuel it needs to grow.

It’s simple - no fuel, no fire.

• Water-based Contego PFB applies like any normal latex paint.

• Cleans up easily with soap and water.

• Contego PFB bonds tightly to virtually any substrate thanks to advanced polymers.

• It’s like any normal latex primer. Apply any color, type

or brand of paint as a topcoat, or tint and use as a finish coat without need to topcoat.

• Thin film means less weight and space than with other barriers.

Special Applications:

• ASTM E-84 Class A Certified Note: Contego extended this important test from the normal 10 minutes to 25 minutes!

• UBC 26-3 – Corner Room Burn for Thermoplastic Systems.

• The American Institute of Toxicology (AIT Labs) burned two identical polyurethane foam specimens in their lab. The Specimen on the top in the video was painted with 2 coats (14 mil.) of Contego PFB Latex with a Wagner sprayer and the bottom specimen was untreated.

See for yourself how Contego PFB protects even highly flammable polyurethane foam from ignition.

The untreated specimen flared on contact with the flame and was consumed in less than 5 minutes. The smoke produced overwhelmed the commercial grade fume hood.

The treated specimen showed no sign of ignition after 15:30 minutes when the test was terminated. As you will see, there was minimal smoke production and the structural integrity of the test sample was substantially unaffected.

Special Applications:

Fire Treated (FR) lumber is expensive, toxic, and not readily available. According to USDA studies, it also destroys the structural integrity of the wood in as little as two years.

The bottom line? Contego is:

• Less expensive than FR by a wide margin.

• Non-toxic and noncarcinogenic.

• Doesn’t damage the wood.

• Far superior fire resistance (UL-723).

Contego Test Results on W10 x 49

Our first steel test in 2001 was designed to see how much protection could be expected from an extremely thin coat of Contego.

• Dry film thickness was ONLY 15 mils (.27mm).

• TC’s on the back side survived to 25.30 minutes

• The failure points were at the flange edges where the coating was 8 mils.

• As a data point, this shows 1.5 minutes per mil (dft) in ASTM E119 tests.

• Nothing matches Contego’s level of protection with such a thin coat.

• Compare with other coatings at ten times the tested thickness.

Contego Test Results on ¼” Steel Plate

On April 7, 2003, Contego International tested it’s Thin Film Intumescent on ¼” steel plate at V-Tech Laboratories. The results were impressive.

• Fully exposed thermocouples last 76 minutes in UL-263/ASTM-E119 test.

• TC’s on the back side survived to 127 minutes.

• The average of all four TC’s went 85 minutes before reaching 1,000° F.

• All of this with an incredibly thin 73 mils of coating.

• Nothing matches Contego’s level of protection with such a thin coat.

• Compare with other coatings at five times the thickness and cost.

Contego Test Results on ¼” Steel Plate by Clarian’s Laboratories in Knapsack, Germany

On March 28, 2003, Clariant Corporation, the global leader in fire protection technology conducted a DIN 1402, Part 8 test on Contego International’s Thin Film Intumescent on a ¼” steel plate to verify it’s performance. The results:

• 75 minutes duration using only 39 mils (dft).

• 95 minutes at 58 mils (dft).

• The DIN 1042, Part 8 uses a hotter furnace temperature and lower fail temperature than the ASTM-119 or UL-263. Contego’s performance matched other test results, proving that Contego Thin Film Intumescent Fire Barrier Latex now represents the state-of-the-art in thin film protection.

• The test results can be found on the “Steel Data” subdirectory on the CD.

Additional Test Results on W10 x 49

As a follow up to the Clariant test, we wanted to verify that Contego is best used as a “thin film” product, so we over-applied to 94 mils.

• Dry film thickness was excessive at 94 mils (2.47mm).

• Failure temperatures were reached at 88 minutes.

• The data from the DIN 1402 Part 8 was confirmed – 75 mils is the maximum thickness for Contego applications on structural steel.

• Count on Contego for complete data for fire protection.

Here’s the bottom line on top coating

Our testing shows how a top coat of acrylic enamel adds 25% to 32% to our fire resistance.  We’ve always known that top coating would add to our fire resistance, but these numbers offer clear quantification. If you average the thermocouple readouts at any point, you will see that the acrylic enamel adds an average of 25% to our fire resistance.  For example, at 1 hour the average of the TC’s on .500 plate steel is 872 degrees with Contego alone, but only 635 degrees if a top coat is applied for a 28% improvement.  On .250 plate, the spread is 1349 vs. 978, also a 28% improvement.  

At 90 minutes, the spread on .500 is 1076 vs. 825 for a 24% gain and on .250, the difference is 29%.  Even at 2 hours, the top coated .250 specimen had not reach failure temperature (In fact, both top coated samples were far from failure for the entirety of the test until it was terminated at 2:25 when the .250 averaged 1058 degrees.  Failure is

1,200 degrees.

Review our test results on Structural Steel

All steel tests are conducted to nine different standards simultaneously – ASTM-E119, UL-263, ULC-S101, NFPA-251, ANSI A2.1, UBC-7.3, plus CEN, ISO and BSS for the world market.

All testing performed by independent, audited, accredited and certified laboratories including UL, SGS-US Testing, Southwest Research Institute, Omega Point Laboratories, Intertek and others.

Superior results with a super-thin coat, no toxicity and unmatched adhesion. (The World Trade Center had fireproofing – but it fell off on impact.)

Seeing is Believing:

The Challenge:The Challenge:

Protecting a 120 year old farmhouse from burning was not a challenge for Contego.

The Contego team dry walled and treated the living room. Then, with the cooperation of the Noblesville Fire Department, we tried to burn it to the ground.

They began by placing an upholstered recliner in the corner, covering it with combustibles like straw and drapery material. Then they lit it and allowed it to burn for several minutes…this would normally cause a catastrophic whole house fire.

Results:Results:

A slight charring of the walls where the power of Contego PFB intumesced to protect the substrate and save the house from burning.

Contego applied two coats of its thin film intumescent latex to this 120 year-old farmhouse. Note that the windows on the treated section of the house stay intact during the entire burn, indicating much cooler temperatures inside, even though the rest of the house is engulfed in flames.

Bottom Line: Protection & Profits

No matter what size the job. No matter what type of job. The cost to “Contego it” compared to the protection achieved is minimal. For combustible materials like wood, OSB, plywood, drywall, and spray polyurethane foam, the cost is impressively low.

For structural steel applications, the savings are even greater. Since Contego can be applied by any qualified commercial paint contractor and requires no special equipment, the applied cost per square foot is significantly lower. Equally important, Contego has excellent dry fall characteristics, an extremely tough bond to any substrate, a pleasant scent, zero toxicity, and all of the other advantages described in this presentation. Once you try Contego, everything else is old news.
