A free-flowing silicone rubber powder, having an average particle size of 1 to 1000 microns and prepared by mixing a polydiorganosiloxane with a silica filler is, uniformly dispersed in a poly(phenylene ether) resin using conventional equipment, such as a single screw or preferably, a twin screw extruder. When employed at relatively low concentrations, such as about 0.2 to 3 parts by weight of powder per 100 parts by weight of resin a, significant improvement in the processability of the resin is obtained, while modification at higher levels such as 5 to, 20 parts by weight of powder per 100 parts by weight of the resin, results in a resin composition having greatly augmented impact …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 16, 1992 and granted June 24, 2003. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 16, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 16, 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.
