Enhanced thermal performance and hydrochloric acid gas (HCl) emission mitigation in ammonium perchlorate (AP)-Based solid propellants with potassium permanganate (KMnO4)/AP dual oxidisers

Atmospheric Environment: X
The conventional propellant used in rocket boosters and tactical missiles commonly utilises ammonium perchlorate (AP). However, the release of harmful chloride fumes resulting from the combustion of AP during rocket launches contributes to a 1 % increase

Embracing Creative Nonconformists and Promoting Them May Require Leaders' High Control Appraisals

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Promoting creative employees is essential to innovation and organizational success. However, leaders do not always embrace the nonconformist nature of creative behaviors. This study examines how leaders' control appraisals—a personal orientation reflecting their belief in their own ability to control situations—influence their receptiveness ...
