Engineering Phosphorus–Iron Coordination Complexes for Simultaneously Fire‐Retardant and Enhanced Epoxy Resins

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
This flame‐retardant epoxy composite realizes synergistic fire suppression via gas‐phase and condensed‐phase dual mechanisms. In the gas phase, phosphorus‐containing radicals trap active H· and OH· radicals to interrupt flame combustion chain reactions. In the condensed phase, Fe species act as Lewis acid co‐catalysts to promote char formation, and the

Influence of Age and Exposure Pathway on Copper and Cadmium Mixture Toxicity: A Study on Daphnia magna

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal contamination in aquatic ecosystems poses substantial risks to freshwater organisms, with mixture effects often deviating from predictions based on single‐metal toxicity. Understanding how age‐specific sensitivities and multiple exposure pathways influence mixture effects is critical for accurate risk assessment.
