IP1897 / IP9189 / IP1265 intumescent fire-protective coatings for aero engine parts and aircraft (FAA 5/15 min)
Country: United Kingdom · Model: IP1897, IP9189, IP1265
Intumescent fire-protective coatings for aero engine and aircraft parts made of titanium, aluminum, fiberglass and composites. The main one, IP1897, is two-component, applied by spraying or brush, and passes the 5-minute fire-resistant and 15-minute fireproof FAA tests. The layer can be 1/10 as thick as alternatives.

- 2K intumescent chemical-resistant coating, spray or brush, air or accelerated drying; BSX 37, Goodrich/AEC 1897; FAA 5-minute fire-resistant and 15-minute fireproof tests
- IP1897 characteristics
- 100 h at 180 °C; operation down to −70 °C; Skydrol 3 h at 70 °C; burner 1100 °C 5 min at ≥ 300 µm; thickness up to 1/10 of alternative coatings
- Application
- Airbus A320/A340 doors, Eurocopter EC135, composites and control units of Rolls-Royce engines; fuel pumps, actuators, fire zones
- IP9189 A/B

Description
When heated, the layer expands many times in volume and forms a heat-insulating porous char that delays heating of the substrate. The IP1897 dries in air or accelerated, keeps its strength and adhesion after burning and resists a strong airflow. Approvals are BSX 37 and the Goodrich/Aero Engine Controls 1897 specification. After 30 minutes at 125 °C and sealing, the coating withstands 100 hours at 180 °C and humidity, works down to −70 °C, tolerates 3 hours in Skydrol at 70 °C and a burner flame of 1100 °C for 5 minutes at a thickness of at least 300 µm. In a demonstration test a 4 mm anodized aluminum panel with the coating under a pressure of 5 psi stayed intact under a propane burner. It is used on Airbus A320 and A340 doors, the EC135 helicopter, composites and engine control units, fuel pumps, actuators and fire zones. The range also includes the chemically resistant IP9189 A/B and the ceramic IP1265.
How to choose
For fiberglass, titanium, aluminum or polyurethane foam substrates the main choice is the IP1897. Where additional chemical resistance is needed for fiberglass, titanium and aluminum, there is the IP9189 A/B, and a ceramic intumescent base is given by the IP1265. The 1100 °C burner test was passed at a thickness from 300 µm, so the thickness is set by the required fire resistance. For weight reduction on composites it helps that the layer can be 1/10 as thick.

FAQ
Which FAA tests does the IP1897 pass?
The 5-minute fire-resistant and 15-minute fireproof. The result depends on the layer thickness.
What thickness of IP1897 is needed for an 1100 °C burner?
At least 300 µm to withstand a 1100 °C flame for 5 minutes.
Up to what temperature does the IP1897 work?
Down to −70 °C in the cold, and after accelerated curing for 30 minutes at 125 °C it withstands 100 hours at 180 °C.
How is the IP1897 applied?
By spraying or brush, with air or accelerated drying. The coating is two-component.
On which substrates and parts is it used?
On fiberglass, titanium, aluminum and polyurethane foam. Examples are Airbus A320 and A340 doors and the EC135 helicopter.
