Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The present process for producing a Bi-based superconducting material comprises molding a material powder and subjecting the molded article to partial melting and then to crystallization in the presence of oxygen. In that case, the molded article is annealed, after the partial melting, to the crystallization temperature and subjected to crystallization at that temperature. Also the article after, the crystallization is cooled and the cooled article is heat-treated in an inert gas atmosphere. According to the above process, there can be obtained a Bi-based superconducting material having excellent superconducting properties.

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 29, 1990 and granted June 10, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended March 29, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 29, 2012.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
