Abstract From the Canadian patent

A nano-crystalline steel sheet and a method of making a nano-crystalline steel sheet are provided. The nano-crystalline steel sheet may be produced by supplying a liquid metallic glass forming alloy to counter-rotating casting rolls. The liquid alloy may form partially solidified layers on each of the casting rolls. The partially solidified layers may then be pressed together by the counter-rotating casting rolls to form a sheet. The twin casting roll method may provide a sufficiently high cooling rate during solidification of the alloy to create a nano-crystalline microstructure.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 28, 2005 and granted January 15, 2013. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 28, 2025.
  • Certificates of supplementary protection extend only drug patents, and it isn't classified as one.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
