The invention discloses a
feed additive containing
tributyrin and a preparation method thereof. The
feed additive is prepared by the following steps: dispersing microspheres in a mixed
solvent, adding tetraethoxysilane for reaction to obtain a product, adding an
etching agent for stirring reaction to obtain HMSNs, dispersing the HMSNs in a
solvent, adding a
coupling agent for reaction to obtain aminated HMSNs, dissolving
carboxymethyl chitosan and an activating agent in a
buffer solution, adding a
coupling agent for reaction to obtain aminated HMSNs, and performing
ultrasonic dispersion to obtain the
feed additive. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding aminated HMSNs to react to obtain HMSNs modified by CMCS on the inner wall, dispersing the HMSNs modified by CMCS on the inner wall in a
solvent, adding
succinic anhydride to carry out ring-opening reaction, adding
ethanolamine to stir to obtain a product, dispersing the product in a solvent, adding a catalyst and palmitoyl
chloride to obtain HMSNs modified by CMCS on the inner wall and palmitate on the outer wall, and carrying out reaction on the HMSNs modified by CMCS and palmitate on the outer wall. And finally, mixing with an
oil phase formed by mixing
tributyrin and
glycerol monocaprylate. The feed additive provided by the invention can improve the
utilization rate and the acting effect of active ingredients.
