Five different formulations were developed with and without using fillers. Cured samples were burned in furnace at 500°C for 2h for char expansion. Bunsen burner test was performed for 1h using UL-94 vertical burning test to investigate the thermal performance of IFRC. The resultant char obtained after burning of coated samples were characterized by using field emission scanning electron microscopy for char morphology. Char composition was analyzed by using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Thermogravimetric analysis was carried out to investigate the residual weight of coating. Results showed that formulation with 0.5 weight of kaolin clay and 0.5 weight of alumina provide best thermal performance, uniform and multi-porous char structure with high anti-oxidation property. © 2014 Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences. date: 2014 publisher: EDP Sciences official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84905019712&doi=10.1051%2fmatecconf%2f20141304013&partnerID=40&md5=5bc3841a7e9c64914424449f4e1ec697 id_number: 10.1051/matecconf/20141304013 full_text_status: none publication: MATEC Web of Conferences volume: 13 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur refereed: TRUE issn: 2261236X citation: Aziz, H. and Ahmad, F. and Binti Megat Yusoff, P.S.M. and Zia-Ul-Mustafa, M.
