Due to this brine treatment, Bauxsol� contains hydrotalcite-like minerals in addition to the zeolitic minerals, metal oxides and hydroxides found in bauxite residue. In this work, investigations are carried out to determine the effect of Bauxsol� addition on the fire performance of an Ammonium Polyphosphate-based epoxy intumescent coating system. Surface imaging, thermal analysis, elemental and phase analyses of the material were carried out using Field Emission Scanning Microscope, Thermogravimetric Analysis, X-ray Florescence Spectroscope and X-ray Diffraction respectively. Fire performance of the system was evaluated with Bunsen burner test for heat shielding capacity. The fire behavior was subsequently analyzed using the generated heat curves and thermogravimetric curves of the systems. © 2016 The Authors. publisher: Elsevier Ltd date: 2016 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Arogundade, A.I. and Ahmad, F. and Bhat, A.H. and Gillani, Q.F. and Megat-Yusoff, P.S.M.B.
