Abstract From the Canadian patent

Free halogen sources (e.g. sodium hypochlorite and chlorine) added as slimicides in high organic component process streams such as pulp and paper processing are rendered more efficacious by the addition of selected Nhydrogen compounds (namely, 5,5-dimethylhydantoin 5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin, cyanuric acid succinimide, urea, 4,4-dimethyl-2-oxazolidinone and glycouril) , to the process stream.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 13, 1995 and granted September 10, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 13, 2015.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 13, 2017.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
