Abstract From the Canadian patent

A solid active, sensitive encapsulant component is admixed with at least one plasticizable matrix material, a matrix component which is substantially nonplasticizable at temperatures lower than the decomposition temperature of the encapsulant and which increases the rate of release of the encapsulant from the matrix, and a liquid plasticizer, to obtain a formable extrudable, cuttable mixture or dough.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed August 17, 2000 and granted January 12, 2016. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 17, 2020.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 17, 2022.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
