Abstract From the Canadian patent

Novel membranes comprise crystals of a zeo-type material carried by a porous support. The crystal growth of the zeo-type material is essentially continuous over the pores of the support and the zeo-type material is crystallised directly from and bonds directly to the support. Membranes may be prepared by immersing the support in a synthesis gel crystallising the gel, removing the support and repeating, these steps at least once.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 26, 1991 and granted February 26, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 26, 2011.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 26, 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.
