MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541122461 A) filed by Puneeth K; and Atme College Of Engineering, Mysore, Karnataka, on Dec. 5, 2025, for 'composite geopolymer concrete material incorporating flax fibers.'
Inventor(s) include Puneeth K; and Atme College Engineering.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention relates to a composite geopolymer concrete material incorporating flax fibers as a sustainable reinforcement component. The composite material utilizes flax fibers characterized by their high strength-to-weight ratio, natural availability, and biodegradability dispersed within a geopolymer matrix synthesized from aluminosilicate industrial by-products such as ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). The incorporation of flax fibers enhances mechanical performance, including compressive strength, flexural capacity, and crack resistance, compared to conventional geopolymer or cement-based concrete. The composite formulation allows optimization of fiber content and length to achieve improved structural behavior and durability. This geopolymer flax fiber composite material offers an environmentally responsible and resource-efficient alternative to traditional reinforced concrete, contributing to reduced carbon emissions and sustainable construction practices."
