Monitoring fire resistance and thermal insulation by coating metal surfaces with boron substance

In this study, research and development was carried out on fire safety and fire retardation on ships, which are the floating elements of the maritime industry. The fire safety that can be taken on the ship, the fire-hazardous compartments of the ship, the effects of corrosion on the ships and solution suggestions are mentioned. The insulations of the ships were evaluated in terms of fire and heat safety. Here, the goal is to prevent the fire on ships before it starts or to take it under control by slowing it down after it starts. For this purpose, the Boron minaret, which is abundant in our country, has been examined and how it can be beneficial in the maritime sector has been investigated. In terms of fire safety and corrosion measures, especially in warships, the heat-retaining and anti-corrosion properties of the boron mineral were highlighted. In our experiments, how boron-added paints developed for ships can contribute compared to the paints used in ships, the study conducted on the Simulator and the results obtained were evaluated. Our simulators made of ship metal, normal painted simulator and boron-added simulator have been compared with several different methods in the same environments. First, by exposing both simulators to high temperature, the temperature level of the inner surface that increases over time was measured. Second, the areas where the paints moved on the surface by giving high temperature under the same conditions were compared. Third, after giving high heat to both simulators under the same conditions, the heat source was cut off and the rate of decrease of the temperature over time was examined. Using boron added paint developed for ships; It was argued that it would reduce the risk of fire, slow down the growth rate of the fire in case of fire, provide rapid self-cooling of the burning material after the fire, and minimize factors such as corrosion and environmental pollution.
