  • Publication number: 20200212522
    Abstract: A heat dissipating element contains graphite and a microencapsulated phase-change material (PCM). The heat dissipating element is provided with a Li-ion battery for a car, truck, or pedelec to control the temperature of the battery. The heat dissipating element allows the capacitance of the Li-ion battery to remain at a higher level and more energy to be available for heating the passenger compartment.

  • Publication number: 20090098265
    Abstract: A method of producing masa which reduces the material and time required, including the amount of water required for processing, the amount of calcium and lime required, energy and space consumption, and processing time. The process preferably includes debranning the corn kernels, collecting the bran, subjecting the debranned corn kernels to a heated alkali solution, and milling the debranned corn kernels. The bran may be sifted and utilized for various products.
