Abstract: The invention relates to a ranging and ballistic display optical sight featuring a mounting bracket, control mainboard, laser emitter, and receiver. An objective lens group and beam splitter prism are arranged coaxially, with the prism positioned above the laser receiver. The laser beam emitted is reflected by the prism into the receiver. A digital reticle plate, aligned with the optical path, displays the range data. The control mainboard calculates distance based on the time difference between laser emission and reception, then displays the result on the reticle. This system enhances shooting precision and efficiency.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a flame retardant composed of multi-component phase change material particles. These particles consist of paraffin wax, nano-flame retardant, and conventional flame retardant. The phase change material is modified with nano-flame retardant and physically coated with conventional flame retardant. The multi-component phase change material flame retardant is formed by creating a two-layer nucleus-shell structure. The nucleus core is made up of the conventional flame retardant, while the shell layer is composed of the nano-flame retardant doped phase change material. The multi-component flame retardant material combines the performance advantages of phase change material, nano flame retardant, and conventional flame retardant. The combination of nano flame retardant and phase change material weakens the disadvantages of phase change material and allows for the full utilization of the energy storage capabilities of the phase change material.
