Abstract From the Canadian patent

An Au plated film 12 is formed on the surface of a plate-formed metal base 13 composed of a metal less noble than Au and the product is cut along a planned cutting line 18 reflecting a contour of a desired component to thereby form a separator 10. Thus-formed separator 10 has the Au plated film 12 formed on the main surface 10a thereof and has a cutting plane 16 formed as an end face 16 stretched up to the main surface 10a. The metal base 13 exposes in a part of the cutting plane 16 in a width of the exposed region of 1 mm or less. This is successful in providing a metal component for fuel cell which is satisfactory in the corrosion resistance and allows easy fabrication at low costs a …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed August 19, 2003 and granted April 17, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 19, 2023.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 19, 2025.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
