  • Publication number: 20240122200
    Abstract: Provided is a functional edible oil (FEO), a preparation method therefor and use thereof. The FEO is prepared by ternary transesterification of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), oils rich in linoleic acid, and oils rich in linolenic acid. The fatty acid composition and distribution of the FEO were determined and optimized via comparative analysis of indexes such as melting point, and effect of improving glucose and lipid metabolism as determined by animal tests. The FEO has a mass ratio of 2.3 to 4.0 for medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) in MCTs to long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) in the oils rich in linoleic acid, and oils rich in linolenic acid and a mass ratio of 0.5 to 1.0 for linoleic acid to linolenic acid in the LCFAs, by mass of fatty acids. The FEO is added to food products at ?18.00%.

  • Patent number: 11929499
    Abstract: A lithium manganate positive electrode active material, comprising a lithium manganate matrix and a cladding layer as a “barrier layer” and a “functional layer” are described. The cladding layer can not only “prevent” the transition metal ions which have been produced by the lithium manganate matrix from directly “running” into the electrolyte solution, but also “prevent” the hydrofluoric acid in the electrolyte solution from directly contacting with the lithium manganate substrate, and then prevent the lithium manganate matrix from dissolving out more transition metal manganese ions; as a “functional layer”, the cladding layer contains various effective ingredients inside, which can reduce the transition metal manganese ions already present inside the battery through chemical reactions or adsorption effects, thus slowing down the generation of transition metal manganese and the decomposition of the SEI film (solid electrolyte interphase film) catalyzed by the transition metal manganese.
