Method For Producing Bituminous Compositions

Patent No. EP2221345 (titled "Method For Producing Bituminous Compositions") was filed by Ingevity South Carolina on Jan 27, 2005. The application was issued on Apr 20, 2016.

Patent oppositions filed by competitors challenge the validity of a granted patent. These oppositions are typically based on claims of prior art, lack of novelty, or non-obviousness. They are a key part of the process for determining a patent's strength and enforceability.
