Nanofibrillar cellulose is obtained by subjecting the hydrolyzed fiber to high pressure homogenization. Nanofibrillar cellulose is further modified by octenyl succinic anhydride or glycidyl methacrylate to increase its ability to absorb fat and cholate. The method of the invention is safe, clean and environment-friendly. It avoids using toxic reagents, strong acids and bases in the process of preparing nanofibrillar cellulose, making it safe to be used as dietary products. The nanofibrillar cellulose made by the invented method has an oil absorption rate of 20-35 g/g, a water absorption rate of 20-30 g/g, expansivity of 40-70 mL/g, and sodium deoxycholate absorption rate of 0.01-0.2 mmoL/100 mg.06-25-2015

20160005491Look Ahead Read Method For Non-Volatile Memory - A read operation for selected memory cell on a selected word line compensates for program disturb which is a nonlinear function of the data state of an adjacent memory cell on an adjacent word line. When a command to perform a read operation for the selected memory cell is received, a read operation is first performed on the adjacent memory cell to determine its data state, or to classify the adjacent memory cell into a threshold voltage range which includes one or more data states, or a portion of a data state. The selected memory cell is then read using a baseline control gate voltage which does not provide compensation, and one or more elevated control gate voltages which provide compensation, to distinguish between two adjacent data states. An optimal sensing result is selected based on the data state or threshold voltage range of the adjacent memory cell.01-07-2016
20160035426Bias To Detect And Prevent Short Circuits In Three-Dimensional Memory Device - In a three-dimensional stacked non-volatile memory device, a short circuit in a select gate layer is detected and prevented. A short circuit may occur when charges which are accumulated in select gate lines due to plasma etching, discharge through a remaining portion of the select gate layer in a short circuit path when the select gate lines are driven. To detect a short circuit, during a testing phase, an increasing bias is applied is applied to the remaining portion while a current is measured. An increase in the current above a threshold indicates that the bias has exceed a breakdown voltage of a short circuit path. A value of the bias at this time is recorded as an optimal bias. During subsequent operations involving select gate transistors or memory cells, such as programming, erasing or reading, the optimal bias is applied when the select gate lines are driven to prevent a current flow through the short circuit.02-04-2016
20160099058Programming Of Drain Side Word Line To Reduce Program Disturb And Charge Loss - Techniques are provided for programming the memory cells of a drain-side edge word line of a set of word lines before programming memory cells of any other word line of the set. Pass voltages applied to the other word lines act as stress pulses which redistribute holes in the charge-trapping material of the memory cells of the other word lines to reduce short-term charge loss and downshifting of the threshold voltage. Additionally, one or more initial program voltages used for the drain-side edge word line are relatively low and also act as stress pulses. The memory cells of the drain-side edge word line are programmed to a narrower Vth window than the memory cells of the other word lines. This compensates for a higher level of program disturb of erased state memory cells of the drain-side edge word line due to reduced channel boosting.04-07-2016
