A method for imparting flame retardancy to a substrate material. The method comprises adding to a substrate material a flame retardant composition. The flame retardant composition comprises at least one flame retardant salt, a nitrogen-containing compound, and optionally water. The at least one flame retardant salt comprises an ammonium salt of phosphoric acid. The ammonium salt of phosphoric acid comprises water soluble ammonium polyphosphate (APP). The water soluble ammonium polyphosphate has a total nitrogen as N from about 5 to about 15 weight percent, and a total phosphorus as P.sub.2O.sub.5 from about 30 to about 40 weight percent, based on the total weight of the ammonium polyphosphate (APP).

An innovative reactive resin system can be used for intumescent coating. Intumescent coatings are used in particular for fire protection of metallic components, such as girders in structural engineering. In a fire scenario, these coatings are reactively foamed and so form a fire-resistant insulating layer with low thermal conductivity around the metal girder, with the resultant insulation retarding premature failure of this component. The resin systems are prepared by an innovative process where the monomer fraction is polymerized only up to a maximum degree of 70%. The glass transition temperature of this polymeric component of the resultant composition is particularly low.

A lightweight ablator formulation has been developed which offers superior thermal performance compared to current state of the art ablator formulations. The lightweight ablator formulations described herein typically include at least one endothermically decomposing (energy absorbing) material with a fluxing agent resulting in significantly reduced backface temperature response and a more stable surface. According to one implementation the ablator composition comprises about 30 to about 70 percent by weight of a base silicone resin, about 25 to about 67 percent by weight of a low-density filler, about 3 to about 7 percent by weight of a curing agent and greater than 0 and up to about 10 percent by weight of a boron-containing compound.
