Abstract From the Canadian patent

The invention provides a polymer composition comprising polyvinylidene chloride and polyethyloxazoline. The composition possesses an unusual combination of characteristics; the inclusion of polyethyloxazoline in the polyvinylidene chloride causes a substantial increase in moisture permeability with no substantial change in permeability to oxygen or carbon dioxide. The polyethyloxazoline is highly miscible with the polyvinylidene chloride and reduces melt viscosity. The combination of properties is indicative of utility as a packaging film.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 6, 1991 and granted March 27, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 6, 2011.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 6, 2013.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
