Abstract From the Canadian patent

High voltage lithium batteries can be made using lithium transition metal oxides having an inverse spinel structure as a cathode material. In particular, these inverse spinel compounds can be suitable for use in lithium ion batteries. Along with high operating voltage, such batteries can exhibit reasonable capacity rate capability, and reversibility.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 9, 1993 and granted January 12, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 9, 2013.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 9, 2015.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
