The project ran between November 2021 and June 2022.
The project has shown that it is possible to manufacture a swelling fire protection paint that contains bio-based raw material. A good collaboration between Protega, Lunds Universitet and RISE has taken this hypothesis test to the point we hoped for from the start. However, much work remains before the product can be considered commercial and we also see a potential in increasing the proportion of bio-based material further.
Participants
PROTEGA AB, Lund University (Department of Chemistry) and RISE – Research Institutes of Sweden AB.
Budget
The project’s total budget was 981 000 SEK.
