Sintx Technologies announces patent issuance, forms agribiotech subsidiary

SINTX Technologies (SINT) announced the issuance of International Patent No. 7635292, which covers novel agricultural uses of the Company’s silicon nitride particularly in plant protection and antimicrobial treatment. This patent, combined with issued U.S. Patent No. 11,591,217, creates a family of patents focused on addressing the antimicrobial agribiotech market. SINTX remains focused on advancing silicon nitride technologies for medical applications; however, the material’s broad utility allows for selective expansion into high-impact adjacent sectors. In line with this strategic expansion, the Company has formed a wholly-owned subsidiary that will have a dedicated management team focused on developing and commercializing agricultural and environmental technologies-signaling the official launch of SINTX Agribiotech. The new agribiotech subsidiary will operate independently from SINTX’s medical device business, with its own development pipeline. This separation allows for focused resource allocation, technology validation in field settings, and potential partnerships or licensing opportunities with agricultural companies.
