Abstract: Provided are a lithium nickel manganese oxide composite material, a preparation method thereof and a lithium ion battery. The preparation method includes: a first calcining process is performed on a nano-oxide and a nickel-manganese precursor, to obtain an oxide-coated nickel-manganese precursor; and a second calcining process is performed on the precursor and a lithium source material, to obtain the lithium nickel manganese oxide, and a temperature of the first calcining process is lower than the second calcining process. At a lower temperature, the nano-oxide may be melted, a denser nano-oxide coating layer is formed on the surface of the precursor, so the oxide-coated nickel-manganese precursor is obtained. At a higher temperature, the nano-oxide, a nickel-manganese material and a lithium element may be more deeply combined. A problem that the nano-oxide layer is easy to fall off is solved, and cycle performance of the lithium nickel manganese oxide is greatly improved.

Abstract: The present invention provides a peripheral nerve growth scaffold including poly ?-caprolactone (PCL) and microgrooves on an inner surface of the scaffold, the scaffold being adapted for use in treatment of damaged peripheral nerves. The microgrooves are suitably arranged as a pattern or array and preferably comprise sloping side walls, which arrangement has been found to provide a favourably environment for nerve and Schwann cell growth and proliferation. Experimental results demonstrate directed and aligned growth, which suitably reduces the rate of formation of neuromas. Embodiments comprising a PCL-PLA blend of the sloping side wall and a groove width greater than the spacing between adjacent grooves has been found to be particularly effective for directed cell growth and proliferation.
