Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The density of hydroxyl groups present on the surface of glass such as E-, glass fibers, is increased by subjecting the surface to a radio frequency induced gas plasma containing water vapor. Surfaces so treated exhibit enhanced adsorption of hydrolyzed organo silane coupling agents applied to improve adhesion between glass fibers and resin matrices in the manufacture of reinforced composites.

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 19, 1999. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended March 19, 2019.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 19, 2021.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
