What is fiber reinforced silicate fire prevention board?

Fiber-reinforced silicate fireproof board, also known as silicate fire-resistant board, incorporates mineral or plant fibers to enhance its structural properties. Developed as an upgraded formulation of traditional fireproof boards, it integrates multiple advanced fire-resistant components and undergoes meticulous processing through dozens of manufacturing stages to ensure superior performance.

In a 4-hour fire resistance test conducted under the international ISO834 temperature-rise curve, this material demonstrates a strength more than twice that of ordinary plasterboard. Its thermal conductivity is lower than that of glass, clay, and ordinary concrete, offering stability that far exceeds traditional fire insulation materials.

Composed primarily of fibers, siliceous-calcium minerals, and refractory materials, fiber-reinforced silicate fireproof board addresses the limitations of conventional external insulation. Its rich formulation includes various inorganic mineral components, delivering a high melting point, stable chemical properties, enhanced strength, and outstanding fire performance.

The main components of this board are inorganic and non-combustible. In the event of a fire, it does not release harmful gases due to temperature changes. With excellent fire resistance, it helps contain fires in their initial stages, effectively blocks toxic fumes, and provides critical time for evacuation and firefighting—thereby reducing potential loss of life and property.

Product Advantages:

• High fire resistance: exceeds 4 hours, meeting fire compartment design requirements.

• Wide range of applications: suitable for various scenarios requiring prominent fire-resistant performance.

• Enhanced safety: contributes to effective fire containment and personnel protection.

Product introduction

I.Production process

Fiber-reinforced silicate fireproof board is manufactured using premium raw materials, including fire-resistant quartz powder, flame-retardant minerals (such as mica and perlite), cement, and various inorganic fire-resistant components. High-quality refractory composite fibers and mineral/plant-based fibers are incorporated as reinforcing materials. The production involves advanced molding techniques, followed by specialized treatments including high-pressure compaction, high-temperature processing, and steam curing.

Ii. Product features

1. Thermal Insulation
   Offers superior thermal insulation, outperforming materials like glass, clay, and ordinary concrete in heat retention and energy efficiency.

2. Lightweight & High Strength
   Features a unique structural design that makes it lighter than ordinary concrete and clay bricks, yet with higher flexural strength. Comparable in weight to wood, it provides more than twice the strength of traditional plasterboard. Especially suitable for steel structure applications, it combines high strength, light weight, good ductility, and strong seismic resistance.

3. Fire Retardancy
   Rated Class A for non-combustibility. Once installed, the board exhibits excellent stability and integrity under fire conditions, helping to contain fires at an early stage, block toxic fumes, and allow sufficient time for evacuation and firefighting—minimizing potential loss of life and property. Made from inorganic flame-retardant fibers, it does not burn or emit toxic gases when exposed to high temperatures, aligning with the principle of “prevention first” in fire safety.

4. Easy Workability
   Can be easily cut, planed, sawn, nailed, and drilled, allowing flexibility in design and installation.

5. Sound Absorption & Insulation
   Depending on thickness and application, it can reduce noise by 20–60 dB. The lightweight partition series, which contains EPS polystyrene particles, offers particularly effective sound insulation and absorption.

6. Load-Bearing Suitability
   Designed to withstand wind, snow, and dynamic loads, making it suitable for various structural applications.

7. High Durability
   As a silicate-based material, it resists aging, weathering, mold, and corrosion. Even under wet conditions, it maintains structural integrity without deformation, offering a service life that matches that of the building itself.

8. Eco-Friendly Material
   A pollution-free, green building material with no radioactivity or harmful emissions. Its production is clean and waste-free. In fire or high-temperature environments, the dense material structure provides impermeability, preventing water and gas penetration.

9. Cost-Effective
   Thin and lightweight, it increases usable floor space, reduces foundation load, shortens construction time, and lowers heating and cooling costs—contributing to overall energy savings.

10. Easy Installation
    Precisely sized and lightweight, it reduces labor and material requirements. The dry construction method simplifies installation, improves efficiency, and accelerates project timelines.

Fiber-reinforced silicate fireproof boards are widely used in various applications, including smoke exhaust and ventilation ducts, interior and exterior firewalls, fire-rated partitions, fire-resistant ceilings, smoke barrier walls, fire sealing for dry-hanging curtain walls, fire cladding for steel columns and beams, interior walls in subways and tunnels, residential renovations, and ceilings and partition walls in commercial and industrial projects.

Architects, designers, and construction units can select this product based on specific project requirements. Jiude fiber-reinforced silicate fireproof board, as a specialized firewall material, has been extensively applied in major cities across China, including Beijing, Shijiazhuang, Hohhot, Baotou, Tianjin, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xi’an, and Dalian.
