Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The invention relates to apparatus and accompanying methods for use therein for forming a material (504), which has high strength and good workability by, rapidly deforming a suitable base metal (501) having a banded structure, such as illustratively a previously cold worked plain low carbon steel alloy, in order to generate a high rate of change in its internal energy which depresses the transformation temperatures of the base metal and thereby induces an allotropic phase transformation to occur therein. This rapid deformation can be produced through rolling, extrusion or forging and causes an extremely high heating rate to occur at each surface of the base metal. Prior to being deformed …

Why it's free to use
- Granted September 22, 1992. A Canadian patent filed before October 1, 1989 lasted 17 years from grant, so its term ended September 22, 2009.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
