Abstract

This review highlights the recent advancements in surface coatings that are crucial for fire retardancy and abrasion resistance. Developments in fire-retardant coatings have introduced formulations that enhance thermal stability and improve combustion resistance. Simultaneously, innovations in abrasive materials focus on durable, high-strength, and heat-resistant compositions suited to demanding industrial applications. These trends reveal a growing need for sustainable, high-performance alternatives to traditional materials. Geopolymers are emerging as a promising solution, environmental compatibility, and superior performance to deliver coatings that excel in both fire protection and wear resistance. This review consolidates findings across fire protection and abrasive applications, emphasizing the role of geopolymer technology in developing coatings that can withstand both fire and mechanical wear. Future directions include optimizing geopolymer formulations to further enhance their resilience, making them adaptable to varied high-demand applications.
