Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
This invention relates to a method for making a dry transfer photopolymerizable positive-working imaging system which provides a photopolymerizable layer on a support and a colored layer on a substrate. Upon imagewise exposure of the photopolymerizable layer, subsequent lamination of the colored layer to the photopolymerized layer and peel apart, a colored image is produced due to the preferred adhesion of the colored layer to the nonexposed areas of the photopolymerized layer.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 12, 1989 and granted February 3, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 12, 2009.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 12, 2011.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
