Patent No. EP3110613 (titled "Polymeric Materials") was filed by Victrex Manufacturing on Feb 13, 2015. The application was issued on Apr 24, 2024.

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.
