MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641051044 A) filed by Easwari Engineering College, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 22, for 'a lightweight multi-layer battery protective enclosure using biochar-reinforced hybrid fiber composites.'
Inventor(s) include Sathiyamoorthy R M; Sudharsanv; Venkateshwaran R; and Srimunth T B.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure relates to a lightweight multilayered battery protective enclosure with a biochar-reinforced rattan-sisal hybrid composite. The protective enclosure is used to ensure safety and efficiency in energy storage. The structure consists of battery cells enclosed in a casing and covered by a protective composite structure, which has several layers. The structure controls the thermal transfer, suppresses the rapid transfer of heat, and allows the controlled dissipation of heat. The inclusion of biochar increases the thermal stability, mechanical strength, impact resistance, and damping of the structure. The structure also has low weight. The hybrid composite structure utilizes the sustainability of natural fibers and the reinforcing ability of biochar. The structure provides high performance, light weight, and sustainability. The structure can be used in various applications, including electric vehicles, portable electronic devices, and energy storage systems."
