MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202631015860 A) filed by National Institute Of Technology, Patna, Bihar, on Feb. 12, for 'paver block with improved thermal properties and permeability, composition and method of manufacturing thereof.'
Inventor(s) include Pandey, Lipika; Kumar, Sandeep; and Rajak, Fulena.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A paver block (100) with improved thermal properties and permeability, composition and method of manufacturing thereof is provided. The paver block (100) includes a composite (102) formed from cement, sand, and recycled waste materials including construction and demolition waste aggregates and plastic waste, thereby providing structural strength and durability while promoting sustainable material utilization. The composite (102) is coated with a plaster layer that protects against abrasion and environmental degradation, and a finish coating that reduces surface heat absorption. The disclosure provides a stable, permeable, and thermally comfortable paving solution suitable for urban outdoor applications. The method provided is simple and scalable. The structural configuration of the paver block allows rapid ingress, temporary retention, and gradual percolation of rainwater, effectively preventing waterlogging, reducing surface runoff, and promoting groundwater recharge."
