From carbides in steel to cobalt–carbon covalent bonds in vitamin B 12, transition metal (TM)–
carbon interactions play a critical role in so many aspects of human life that we rarely realize …

The maximum and minimum values of dust explosion parameters are indeterminate
because the possibility of explosion has not been quantified under conditions that approach …

Electrostatic ignition has triggered significant fire/explosion incidents in liquid processing
industries including chemical, oil/gas, food, pharmaceutical and transportation. In this work …

Flame propagation in lean suspensions of nonvolatile fuels (aluminum and iron) in oxidizing
atmospheres is experimentally investigated. Suspensions of micron-sized fuel particles were …

Dust explosion hazards can be described with parameters such as MIE, MEC, P max, K st
etc., which are known to depend on particle size distribution within a dust cloud. Literature …

Fmoc groups are base labile functional groups attached to amino acids to reduce
undesirable reactions in peptide synthesis. As with ordinary amino acids, Fmoc-protected …

Proactive control measures to prevent exposure are often implemented initially until a more
in depth understanding of nanomaterial risks are established. However, these precautionary …

In the framework of the on-going research on dust explosion, both a physical and chemical
theory and numerical models extensively validated are yet to be found. In order to develop …

Suspensions of solid metal powders burning in a gaseous oxidizer can be modelled as a
reaction-diffusion wave propagating through a heterogeneous mixture with discrete …

Dust explosions have led to numerous fatalities, injuries and property loss. Standards
(ASTM, ISO etc.) mention a 20 L or a 1 m 3 apparatus to measure explosion parameters …
