Inventor(s) include Himanshu Milind Somkuwar; Dr. Kathirvel Santhy; Dr. Monil Salot; Dr. Gaurav Avasthi; Dr. Shiv Govind Singh; K. Hari Prakash; Vyom Desai; and Dr. Sujoy K. Chaudhury.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 23, under issue no. 04/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Electrochemical process for the production of high-purity aluminum doped titanium oxide nanopowder at room temperature The present invention describes a simple, sustainable, highly reproducible and cost-effective electrochemical oxidation process for the production of high-purity aluminum doped titanium oxide nanopowder in which about 5-10 wt. % of titanium is substituted with aluminum. Initially titanium-aluminum cast plates are prepared by melting the metals in a furnace and casting in a sand mold or permanent mold followed by solutionizing and quenching the plate which is used as the anode (An) in an electrolytic bath (EB). A plate/wire of silver/platinum is used as the cathode. Both the electrodes are connected to a DC power supply (PS) using an aluminum wire. A salt solution is used as electrolyte and electric potential is applied due to which the anode is oxidized to produce aluminum doped titanium oxide nanopowder, which is filtered, washed and dried."
