Patent No. EP2681260 (titled "A Coating Composition And Articles Made Therefrom") was filed by DOW on Mar 2, 2011. The application was issued on May 31, 2023.

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.
