Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Methods and compositions for reducing the precipitation of metal sulfides from acid solutions are provided. The methods basically comprise reducing the precipitation of metal sulfide compounds from an aqueous acid solution when the solution dissolves sulfide and metal ions by combining at least one oxime with the acid solution in an amount whereby the oxime preferentially reacts with sulfide ions in the solution and thereby prevents the sulfide ions from reacting with metal ions therein.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 19, 1993 and granted April 29, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 19, 2013.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 19, 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.
