Compositions and principles for use before parturition in the prophylactic treatment of hypocalcemia in ruminant animals include compositions having phosphate binders for the prophylactic treatment of parturient hypocalcemia in ruminant animals. These compositions are presented in unit dosage forms, with one or more doses administered daily to the gastrointestinal tract of the ruminant animal, or in wet form. The composition contains one or more phosphate binders and one or more nutrients selected from minerals, vitamins, and amino acids, as well as a composition that includes an inhibitor of the small intestinal Na-phosphate transporter for the prophylactic treatment of parturient hypocalcemia in ruminant animals. Phosphate binders are selected from aluminum, iron, sevelamer, and lanthanum salts, with either inorganic or organic acids, hydrates thereof, or any mixture thereof.

This invention discloses a high-performance silicon carbide plastic and its preparation method, belonging to the field of refractory materials technology. The high-performance silicon carbide plastic is composed of basic raw materials and additives. The basic raw materials include silicon carbide powder, corundum granules, corundum powder, micro powder, plasticizer, aluminate cement, and silicon carbide granules. The additives include plasticizers, retarders, modified basalt fibers, and phosphate binders. The modified basalt fibers are obtained by doping basalt fibers with zinc oxide and coating them with epoxy resin. The preparation method of this invention is simple. Through the design of the ratio of basic raw materials and additives, especially the combined use of modified basalt fibers doped with zinc oxide and coated with epoxy resin and retarder, the final silicon carbide plastic has high mechanical strength and excellent retarding properties, meeting the requirements for use in harsh environments such as high-temperature industrial kilns.

According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a material for thermal energy storage, the material comprising one or more metallic substances selected from metals and / or metal alloys encapsulated in a structural host material, wherein the metallic substances have a melting point in the range of 300-900 °C, and wherein the structural host material comprises at least 90 mass% of a hardened inorganic binder comprising one or more of a hydraulic binder, an alkali-activated material and a phosphate binder. According to another aspect, the invention provides a method of manufacturing said material for thermal energy storage, the method comprising the steps of: - providing a mixture of a metallic substance in solid state and a dry unreacted binder capable of reacting with a specified liquid; - adding the specified liquid to the mixture, thereby creating a paste containing the binder of the metallic substance; - casting the paste into a desired shape; and - hardening the paste, including the reaction with the specified liquid, whereby the paste is transformed into a structural host material encapsulating the metallic substance. According to yet another aspect, there is provided a method of heating a process stream by electrical power, the method comprising: - directly or indirectly electrically heating an amount of a material for thermal energy storage; and - directly or indirectly heat exchanging the process stream with the amount of material, thereby heating the process stream with heat from the amount of material.
