Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Cyclic ester oligomers (CEOs) are manufactured from linear polyesters or their precursors by a continuous reactive extraction in which the linear polyesters are converted to the CEOs and the CEOs selectively removed from the mixture by extraction with a fluid. The fluid may be a liquid or a gas. The CEOs prodcued are useful as monomers, for example in a reaction injection molding process to rapidly form polyesters from low viscosity liquids.

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 28, 2002. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended February 28, 2022.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 28, 2024.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
