In order to keep up with the ever increasing technical demands for our products, we have developed Wallrock Thermal FR Adhesive – an extra strong adhesive with added flame retardant properties, to help protect combustible surfaces.
The Adhesive has been designed to create a permanent bond for our technical linings, and also incorporates active fire retardants that assist with the dampening of flames and help to enhance the fire performance of the product it is used to hang, such as Wallrock Fireliner and Insulating Lining Paper Graphite Plus. Both of these popular products have been used in conjunction with Wallrock Thermal FR Adhesive as part of a system which have been tested to BS476, the test results can be seen by clicking the links below. It also delays the onset of further combustion.
The incorporated flame retardant additives are integrated into two separate mechanisms, each having a synergistic effect on the other. The first endothermically removes heat from the reaction and the second creates a thermal insulation barrier between the burning and the unburnt components on the wall – this is achieved by creating a protective char, which in turn slows down heat transfer to the unburnt fuel..
