This work aims at evaluating the potential of nano-sized zinc borate as substitution of boric acid for thermal degradation and gaseous products in expandable graphite based intumescent fire retardant coating IFRC systems. The thermal degradation and pyrolysis of intumescent flame retardant coatings...
