[0002] Epoxy resin (EP) has good electrical insulation properties, mechanical properties and bonding strength, as well as the advantages of wide sources and low prices. It is widely used in defense, aerospace, coatings, electronics and construction. However, EP is easily decomposed into low molecular weight combustibles when heated, and releases a large amount of heat, smoke and toxic gases during the combustion process, which not only pollutes the environment, but also causes serious losses to people's production and life. In order to improve the flame retardant properties of EP, it is necessary to add flame retardants to its raw materials to improve its flame retardant properties.

[0003] CN117126585A discloses a high heat flow resistant intumescent fire retardant coating and its preparation method. The high heat flow resistant intumescent fire retardant coating is composed of a topcoat and a primer, wherein the components of the topcoat include, by mass, 50-80 parts of epoxy resin, 20-40 parts of epoxy resin modifier, 10-25 parts of flame retardant, 25-45 parts of carbon forming agent, 20-40 parts of foaming agent, 10-30 parts of refractory fiber, 10-40 parts of inorganic filler, 5-15 parts of curing agent, 5-10 parts of defoaming agent and organic solvent; the components of the primer include, by mass, 70-90 parts of phosphate base material. The intumescent fire retardant coating prepared by the present invention is green and non-toxic, can be cured at room temperature, the viscosity of the coating can be adjusted, the construction method can be sprayed or brushed, the required coating thickness is thin and the bonding strength with the substrate is high, and the excellent and stable flame retardant effect can be improved under high heat flow conditions.

[0004] CN117106362A discloses an intumescent heat-insulating flame-retardant epoxy coating and a preparation method thereof. The intumescent heat-insulating flame-retardant epoxy coating comprises the following raw materials by mass: 100 parts of epoxy resin, 40-120 parts of curing agent, 60-120 parts of diluent, 150-200 parts of flame retardant, 50-100 parts of filler, and 10-30 parts of dispersant. The intumescent heat-insulating flame-retardant epoxy coating has both flame-retardant and heat-insulating effects, can withstand high temperatures of 1300°C without burning through, and has a back temperature below 300°C, and a temperature difference resistance of 1000°C, which overcomes the problem that the current flame-retardant epoxy material is only flame-retardant but not heat-insulating, and can better protect the substrate from high-temperature erosion and damage.

[0005] CN116970325B discloses a fire-retardant coating for buildings and a preparation method thereof. The fire-retardant coating for buildings consists of component A and component B; component A consists of water-soluble epoxy resin, hyperbranched polyglycidol, high modulus potassium silicate, modified expanded graphite, thickener, stabilizer, dispersant, nano-scale inorganic filler and deionized water; component B consists of amino-terminated hyperbranched polyamide, lauryl amphoteric imidazoline and deionized water; the coating prepared by the present invention has an adhesion of 13.2-14.4 MPa, no abnormality in water resistance (immersion for 30 days), no substrate exposure in scrubbing resistance (1000 times), and fire resistance of 141-153 minutes.
