    Describes requirements for the materials and performance of an ambient cure intumescent paint suitable for use in the aerospace industry, which will produce a substantial layer of protective foam when exposed to fire.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This British Standard specifies requirements for the materials and performance of an ambient cure intumescent paint suitable for use in the aerospace industry, which will produce a substantial layer of protective foam when exposed to fire.

    NOTE This product can produce toxic gases on exposure to fire, and therefore is not suitable for use in interior cabin areas.

    Type approval requirements are provided in Annex A.
