Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The invention overcomes the problem of paper edge overdrying during the paper drying process on paper machine drying cylinders. It comprises applying a thin ceramic coating onto the circumferential exterior surface of the cylinder near the cylinder edges, thereby forming a thermal barrier coating which decreases paper drying rate at said edges and reduces or eliminates paper edge overdrying.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 18, 1996 and granted December 17, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 18, 2016.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 18, 2018.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
