Abstract From the Canadian patent

A melt-extrudable conductive polymer composition which contains a polymer a , particulate conductive filler, a particulate non-conductive filler and a flame retardant and heaters prepared from these , compositions. Heaters can be prepared in standard strip heater form (1) where electrodes (5 7) are embedded in the conductive , polymer composition (3) which provides the resistive element. A polymeric jacket (9) surrounds the heater core. When compositions of the invention are tested in a standard arc propagation test, an arc will not propagate. Compositions which are preferred contain carbon black, Sb2O3, and a halogenated flame retardant.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 10, 1991 and granted October 23, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 10, 2011.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 10, 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.
