Wood burning stoves are widely used for heating in residential and commercial settings, but their exterior surfaces are exposed to high temperatures and corrosive substances, such as soot, ash, and moisture. Coatings can protect the stove from these harsh conditions, but traditional solvent-based coatings have significant environmental and health drawbacks. Water-based coatings are a promising alternative, but their properties for stove protection are not yet fully understood. This article presents a comprehensive review of some of the key properties of water-based coatings for wood burning stove protection and compares them with solvent-based coatings, such as adhesion and cyclic heat resistance based on conducted tests. The review highlights some of the advantages and disadvantages of water-based coatings and provides insights for stove manufacturers, coating suppliers, and regulators to make informed decisions on the selection and regulation of coatings for wood burning stoves.
