Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A matched catalytically inactive compensator for use in a combustible gas sensor is made from a catalytically active detector. The catalytically active detector is exposed to a gas phase catalytic inhibitor such as hexamethyldisiloxane to completely destroy its catalytic ability thereby forming a compensator which has very similar chemical and physical properties to the untreated detectors.

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 24, 1992. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended April 24, 2012.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 24, 2014.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
