MUMBAI, India, Feb. 6 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541107003 A) filed by Vidya Jyothi Institute Of Technology, Hyderabad, Telangana, on Nov. 4, 2025, for 'a soil stabilization composition for improving expansive soils.'
Inventor(s) include Tirumala Deepika; T Sarada; V Swathi; K Roja; M. Mounika; Ashwin Kumar Mogulamadaka; and P. Rohith Kumar.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 6, under issue no. 06/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a soil stabilization composition (100) specifically formulated for improving expansive soils including black cotton soil, clayey soil, and loamy soil. The composition (100) comprises bagasse ash (104) functioning as a pozzolanic additive capable of reacting with soil minerals to form cementitious compounds; iron dust (106) functioning as a densifying and reinforcing agent adapted to fill soil voids and enhance interparticle friction; Zyco Bond (108), a nano-polymer emulsion functioning as a chemical stabilizer adapted to penetrate soil pores, impart hydrophobic bonding, and improve cohesion; and calcium chloride (110) functioning as a hygroscopic agent adapted to regulate moisture content, minimize swelling and shrinkage, and enhance frost resistance. The synergistic interaction of these components collectively improves soil density, reduces plasticity index and swelling potential, enhances unconfined compressive strength and California Bearing Ratio, and provides durable, long-term, and eco-friendly stabilization suitable for diverse geotechnical applications including road subgrades, embankments, pavements, and building foundations."
