Shipbuilding industry adds fire-retardant cotton to ship compartments to solve the problem of fire and smoke prevention in maritime escape.
Apr 17,2025

Disruptive Applications of Shipbuilding in Four Major Scenarios
Engine Room Firewall
Composite Structure: 2mm pre-oxidized fiber felt + silicon carbide coated steel plate
Performance Leap:
Explosion resistance pressure increased from 0.3MPa to 0.8MPa
Fire spread speed reduced from 2.4m/min to 0.3m/min
Temperature in adjacent compartments <80℃ within 30 minutes
Passenger Cabin Partition Upgrade
Ultra-thin design: 12mm overall thickness achieves 60-minute fire resistance rating
Humanized Breakthrough:
Sound insulation index increased to Rw=55dB
Wall surface temperature always <40℃
Supports magnetic adsorption decorative panels
Cable Channel Protection
Triple Protection System:
Pre-oxidized fiber sheath (withstands 1500℃ electric arc)
Expansion sealant (expands and fills gaps when heated)
Intelligent monitoring strip (real-time alarm for abnormal wire temperature)
Practical Effect: Zero cable fire accidents after modification of a certain cruise ship
Escape Route Construction
Three-dimensional Protective Net:
Ceiling: Spraying 3mm pre-oxidized fiber aerogel
Walls: Modular fireproof cotton board
Floor: High-temperature resistant drainage grating
Pre-oxidized Fiber Fireproof Cotton
Kaidun Industry produces and sells pre-oxidized fiber fireproof cotton, supporting flexible customization of weight 80-2000g/m², width 1-2.4m, and thickness 1-15mm to meet diverse needs.
Fire Resistance Performance
Fireproof cotton has the characteristics of flame retardancy, fire resistance, and high temperature resistance, with a high limiting oxygen index. It does not burn when exposed to open flames and has no dripping. Long-term temperature resistance 200℃-300℃, instantaneous temperature resistance 1000℃.
Environmentally Friendly and Non-toxic
No toxic gases are produced during combustion, which is beneficial for fire escape during a fire.
Lightweight and High Strength
Fireproof cotton is lightweight, and pre-oxidized fiber fireproof cotton has the effect of heat insulation and heat preservation. Compared with traditional rock wool, pre-oxidized fiber fireproof cotton reduces weight more under the same fire rating.
