Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The latex polymer compositions of the present invention exhibit latent crosslinking properties. Latent crosslinking in the polymers takes advantage of the fast reaction that occurs between amine-reactive carbonyl groups in the polymer component and carbonyl-reactive amine nitrogens in the crosslinking component, but controls the rate of crosslinking by protonating the amines with a volatile acid. Once the latex is coated onto a substrate the volatile , acid evaporates and the carbonyl reactive amine nitrogens react with the amine reactive carbonyl groups to form a crosslinked coating.

Why it's free to use
- Filed May 5, 1999. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended May 5, 2019.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 5, 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.
