1. A non-flammable structure comprising:
a substrate;
a layer applied to the substrate, the layer in dried form has a thickness of about 1 mm to about 5 mm and comprises:
a binder having mixed therein about 50% to about 90% by weight of microencapsulated phase change material and about 0.5% to about 10% by weight of an inorganic flame retardant,
wherein the inorganic flame retardant has a volume that increases upon exposure to heat or fire,
the binder is selected from the group consisting of a polyurethane, a styrene acrylic copolymer, a styrene butadiene copolymer, an acrylic, and combinations thereof, and the layer in dried form provides 0.1 kg/m2 to 2 kg/m2 of microcapsules.
