Thanks, I suspected this was the case - we will need to evaluate the requirements for passive fire protection closely.

Thanks "metengr". We are doing a fire safety study on an existing vessel that is manufactured from this material and need to determine of it is likely to rupture under fire conditions.

Have checked - library only has Part I and Parts VIII so still looking for help please. "Googling" indicates data is available for low temperature (up to ~100°) but not for high temperatures.

I do not have a copy, but may be able to get access at library - however does it cover such high tempertures for 9% Ni steel?

I am looking for elevated temperature properties (UTS) of 9% nickel steel (BS EN 10028-4 X8Ni9 HT 680) Ideally I would like to know what reduction factor to use for 300, 400, 500 and 600°C for use in vessel rupture calculation under fire conditions.

Only comment I would make is have you checked that either fire tests is applicable to the fire hazard likely in the location where the valve is situated. On offshore oil or gas installations and petrochemical plants most fire hazards are either hydrocarbon or jet fire. These fires are much...

I have previously bought cable tray protection from a company in Houston (http://www.e-cats.com/procon/index.htm) that is capable of withstanding severe fire (including hydrocarbon fires). You will need to watch out as wrapping power cables in any system may require uo to de-rate the cable to...

There is a little known waterbased PU product on the market that is used for sealing marble and ceramic tiles it comes in clear and coloured. The coloured version has a ten year guarantee against UV fading. I have used it on floors and roof tiles and it works well. send me you contact info and...

Hi we have experience of spraying thin film water based coating and experience similar results. What is the subsiquent coating you are applying? if it is a true water based PU then the coating actually cures from the substrate out hense the improved performance in application with a warm...

A couple of points to lookout for, we were involved in testing some passive fire protection materials for offshore use where we were requested to conduct tests aiming to simulate a 5kJoule impact. This was to simulate the sort of impacts from flying objects (e.g scafold tubes and fire...

Mohtogh, We supply a water based paint coating system suitable for use on a wide range of surfaces including plastics and rubber. The product has a high degree of flexibilty and has been extensivly used in a wide range of environments. Please e-mail some details and we will send you a...
