3results about "Smoke/mist generation" patented technology

A smoke producing method and device of the present disclosure produces a non-incendiary, organic-polymerization based, smoke-producing reaction. Some versions of the smoke are effective carriers for capsaicinoid compounds. The method of generating smoke comprises initiating a frontal polymerization reaction by heating a composition comprising a monomer compound that exothermically polymerizes upon initiation with an initiator compound and an initiator compound that initiates polymerization of the monomer compound present at a mass concentration that is at least five percent of the mass concentration of the monomer compound. The polymerization of the monomer compound is exothermic, and in one embodiment the concentration of initiator compound is at least five percent of the concentration of monomer compound. The smoke mainly comprises thermal decomposition products of the initiator compound.

The application discloses an aluminum-based powder fuel with a grain boundary oxygen vacancy channel and a preparation method and application thereof, and particularly relates to the technical field of metal fuel and aluminum-based alloy powder fuel. The method comprises the following steps: heating and melting pure aluminum to form an aluminum melt; then adding an Al-RE intermediate alloy into the aluminum melt, and adjusting the total content of rare earth elements RE in the melt to be 0.1-7 wt%; finally, performing controlled supersonic atomization rapid solidification on the uniformly mixed melt to obtain an aluminum-based alloy powder. After the powder burns, a rare earth oxide channel rich in oxygen vacancy defects is constructed at the grain boundary, and the oxidation combustion is further promoted. The lattice distortion caused by the difference in atomic radii of double rare earth (Ce / La) and the in-situ solid solution of boron atoms greatly reduce the formation energy of oxygen vacancies. In the combustion process, high-concentration oxygen vacancies form a "high-speed oxygen transmission channel", break the barrier of the dense oxide film, and enable oxygen to quickly penetrate into the particle core, thereby significantly improving the burnout rate and energy release efficiency of the aluminum powder.

Methods of solar radiation modification (SRM) by stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) of reflective particles and with respect to a desired climate state are provided. Methods comprise configuring the SAI by devising an optimized global spatio-temporal distribution of the reflective particles to keep key climate variables within desired ranges, monitoring the global climatic impact of the SAI to assess deviations from the desired climate state, and adjusting the SAI to counter the possible deviations of climate variables from their desired levels. Further examples relate to methods of tracking and authenticating aerosol particle batches deployed for solar radiation modification using batch-specific identifiers derived from markers incorporated into the particles. Deployed particles are later captured and analyzed to verify origin, assess stability and performance, and update a stored data record with deployment and lifecycle information.
