MUMBAI, India, April 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411071283 A) filed by Dr. Ramratan; and Dr. Raul Fangueiro, Lakshmangarh, Rajasthan, on Sept. 20, 2024, for 'handloom woven fabric from hand spun yarn of cayratia trifolia l. fiber and method thereof.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Ramratan; and Dr. Raul Fangueiro.
The application for the patent was published on April 10, under issue no. 15/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Present invention discloses handloom woven fabric from handspun yarn of Cayratia trifolia L fiber along with preparation method. The process involves eco-friendly fiber extraction by water retting, followed by cleaning, drum carding, hand-spinning using spindle-based techniques, and weaving on a traditional handloom. The resulting yarn exhibits high tensile strength (76.24MPa) with balanced elongation, while the handloom fabric demonstrates superior GSM, thickness, and structural integrity. Comparative evaluation revealed excellent thermal resistance, high air permeability, superior water vapor transmission, and outstanding vertical wicking properties, making the fabric highly breathable and moisture-regulating. Additionally, strong tensile and tearing strength confirm its durability and suitability for diverse textile applications. With lightweight, softness, and 9% moisture regain, Cayratia trifolia L. fabric is particularly suitable for eco-textiles, baby diapers, sanitary pads, upholstery, and apparel, promoting sustainable, comfortable, and functional fabric development."
