Ten problems that should be paid attention to when applying for patent

Publishing scientific papers is as important as applying for patents, and there is no contradiction. Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences publishes a large number of scientific papers and applies for many patents every year. Through in-depth analysis, it can be found that the major scientific and technological achievements disclosed in its scientific papers, such as methanol to olefins and syngas to olefins, have been patented at home and abroad several years in advance.

Applying for a patent before publishing a scientific paper has little effect on the subsequent published scientific papers; On the contrary, if the paper is published first and then applied for a patent, if the scientific paper has been made public at the time of patent application, it will be regarded as the existing technology that affects the novelty and creativity of patent application, and the scientific and technological innovation achievements cannot be protected by patents, so the scientific and technological achievements must be made public after patent protection.
