MUMBAI, India, Feb. 6 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511133348 A) filed by Abes Engineering College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on Dec. 30, 2025, for 'biodegradable composite material reinforced with fibers extracted from carissa carandas stem biomass.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Neha Singh Raghuvanshi; Mudit Saxena; and Arpita Johri.
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 invention concerns the composite biodegradable biomaterials fortified with biofibers derived from the stem of the Carissa Carandas woody plant. The biomass undergoes a process of mechanical fiber extraction and alkaline delignification to obtain the cellulose base fiber, which can be treated (surface) to allow better compatibility with the epoxy matrix. The biofibers are uniformly differentiated into the resin which is molded into a lightweight, and durable as well as environmentally friendly composite. The obtained composite improves the tensile strength and stiffness with thermal stability while recycling agricultural waste. Thus the invention substitutes the composite of synthetic fibers with a sustainable option, and is applicable to the automotive, construction, and consumer product industry."
