Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
109 words
A process for the preparation of a fibre and/or a monolithic material comprising forming a homogeneous solution by dissolving in water, or in a C l - C 4 alcohol or in a mixture of water and a C 1 - C 4 alcohol an aluminium halohydrate organic complex formed from an aluminium halohydrate and a polyol containing 2 to 6 carbon atoms and at least 2 hydroxy groups, optionally including an organic silicate containing at least one C 1 - C 6 alkoxy group and evaporating solvent until the solution forms a filament or clear coherent gel which on firing forms a ceramic fibre or a monolithic material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
109 words
A process for the preparation of a fibre and/or a monolithic material comprising forming a homogeneous solution by dissolving in water, or in a C l - C 4 alcohol or in a mixture of water and a C 1 - C 4 alcohol an aluminium halohydrate organic complex formed from an aluminium halohydrate and a polyol containing 2 to 6 carbon atoms and at least 2 hydroxy groups, optionally including an organic silicate containing at least one C 1 - C 6 alkoxy group and evaporating solvent until the solution forms a filament or clear coherent gel which on firing forms a ceramic fibre or a monolithic material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
A process as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the homogenous solution contains salts or alkoxides of other elements which assist in the formation of or enhance the properties of the filaments or ceramic fibres.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
21 words
