Propagation Characteristics of Aluminum/Propylene Oxide Multiphase Cloud Explosion With Different AlH3 Ratios and Initiation Energies

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Explosion process of propylene oxide (PO)/Al/AlH3/air was investigated. The PO/Al/AlH3/air multiphase clouds under strong ignition detonation have reached a quasi‐detonation state. ABSTRACT Fuel‐air explosives (FAE) are an important source of explosion energy. The density advantage of aluminum hydride (AlH3) dust is obvious compared with that of liquid

The Evolution of Electrochemical and Safety Properties of Nonflammable Triethyl Phosphate Based Electrolyte Under Salt Concentration Control

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
By regulating the lithium salt concentration to alter the solvation structure of Li+, and subsequently affecting the chemical composition of the SEI, the evolution of salt concentration on the electrochemical and safety performance of cells are explored. ABSTRACT Phosphates exhibit excellent flame retardancy. Phosphate‐based electrolytes with high‐salt‐

Teaching Enjoyment and Vitality as Mediators of Cognitive Flexibility and Reflective Teaching in EFL Teachers: A Mixed‐Methods Serial Mediation Analysis

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Reflective teaching (RT) is influenced by a range of cognitive, pedagogical, and psycho‐affective factors in second/foreign language (L2) education. However, empirical evidence on the influence of psycho‐affective variables on teachers' reflectivity remains limited.
