Hydroflam® S17 comes in liquid form (VOC and formaldehyde free), odorless and colorless. It is ready to use. It can be colored (powder dye or liquid acrylic) to obtain an aesthetic effect or traceability. It is slightly foaming. The fireproof material, once dry, can be tinted but only with non-declassifying products.
Prevents the spread of flames and fire and reduces the development of smoke.
Must be used in dry and closed indoor areas.
Implementation and preparation of the support
The support must be dry, free of dust, oil, wax, grease, dirt, resin, etc.
Hydroflam® S17 can be applied in 2 ways on dry, porous, double-sided support:
- By spraying "to refusal" with a flat jet nozzle (recommended for fragile papers, such as crepe paper)
- By dipping (total immersion in the fireproof product).
It is recommended to let dry between 12 and 72 hours depending on the temperature and humidity, naturally or accelerated. A slight shrinkage of the fiber may occur.
Indicative yields
The consumption of Hydroflam® S17 varies according to the nature, composition, mass of the support and the fire classification targeted. Generally speaking, the Hydroflam® S17 take-up rate must be at least 60% of the mass of the support to be treated.
Ex.: to fireproof a 200 g silk fabric, 120 g of Hydroflam® S17 will be required. The mass of the wet fabric before drying must be 320 g.
