MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611079154 A) filed by Indian Institute Of Technology Banaras University, Varanasi on June 26, 2026, for A Viscoelastic Polymeric Hydrogel And A Method Of Synthesis Thereof.

Inventors include Pradip Paik; and Kirti Wasnik.

The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a viscoelastic polymeric hydrogel and a method of synthesis thereof. The viscoelastic polymeric hydrogel comprises a first monomer, a second monomer, a carboxamide, and a cross-linker that is synthesized through a free radical emulsion polymerization. The viscoelastic polymeric hydrogel is having pendant free side groups of glycine and lysine that lead to pH-dependent swelling behavior in the hydrogel, with increased hydrophilicity at higher pH, exhibits complex viscoelastic behavior, shows selective biodegradable behavior, promotes cell proliferation and angiogenesis in wound healing. Figure 1 on sheet no. 1 of the drawings may accompany the abstract when published.
