Preferably the hard phase (a1) may contain low molecular weight and/or polymer-bound UV-absorbers. The difference between index of refraction of the thermoplastic polymer A and that of the thermoelastic polymer B is at most 0.02. Despite its matte finish the film has high transparency, is weather resistant has low incidence of white …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed August 3, 1992 and granted January 14, 2003. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 3, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 3, 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.
