Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
94 words
A method of forming an organopolysiloxane material bonded to a polymeric support comprising placing an organopolysiloxane fluid on a polymeric support; and irradiating said fluid and support with ultraviolet light or high energy radiation to crosslink a portion of said fluid to produce a material which is bonded to said support and which comprises a mixture of crosslinked organopolysiloxane and from about 10% to about 90% by weight uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil and has a cone penetraton between about 100 and about 350 (10- 1 mm) and an ultimate elongation of at least about 100%.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
94 words
A method of forming an organopolysiloxane material bonded to a polymeric support comprising placing an organopolysiloxane fluid on a polymeric support; and irradiating said fluid and support with ultraviolet light or high energy radiation to crosslink a portion of said fluid to produce a material which is bonded to said support and which comprises a mixture of crosslinked organopolysiloxane and from about 10% to about 90% by weight uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil and has a cone penetraton between about 100 and about 350 (10- 1 mm) and an ultimate elongation of at least about 100%.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil is present between about 25% and about 75%.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
A method according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the organopolysiloxane comprises a polydimethylsiloxane and up to about 5% of the polydimethylsiloxane is terminated with divinylmethylsiloxane groups.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
18 words
A method according to any preceding claim, wherein the irradiation is by ultraviolet light or an electron beam.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
102 words
A method of bonding an organopolysiloxane material to a polymeric support comprising contacting a polymeric support with material comprising a mixture of crosslinked organopolysiloxane and from about 10% to about 90% by weight uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil and having a cone penetration between about 100 and about 350 (10- 1 mm) and an ultimate elongation of at least about 100%; and irradiating said polymeric support and organopolysiloxane material with ultraviolet light or high energy radiation sufficient to effect a bond of the organopolysiloxane material to the polymeric support but without substantially changing the cone penetration and ultimate elongation values of the organopolysiloxane material.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
102 words
A method of bonding an organopolysiloxane material to a polymeric support comprising contacting a polymeric support with material comprising a mixture of crosslinked organopolysiloxane and from about 10% to about 90% by weight uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil and having a cone penetration between about 100 and about 350 (10- 1 mm) and an ultimate elongation of at least about 100%; and irradiating said polymeric support and organopolysiloxane material with ultraviolet light or high energy radiation sufficient to effect a bond of the organopolysiloxane material to the polymeric support but without substantially changing the cone penetration and ultimate elongation values of the organopolysiloxane material.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 5 wherein the uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil is present between about 25% and about 75%.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
27 words
A method according to claim 5 or 6 wherein the organopolysiloxane comprises a polydimethylsiloxane and up to about 5% of the polydimethylsiloxane is terminated with divinylmethylsiloxane groups.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
20 words
A method according to claim 5, 6 or 7 wherein the irradiation is by ultraviolet light or an electron beam.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
50 words
An article comprising a polymeric support and grafted thereon a mixture of a crosslinked organopolysiloxane and from about 10 to about 90% by weight uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil which mixture has a cone penetration of about 100 to 350 (10- 1 mm) and an ultimate elongation of at least about 100%.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
50 words
An article comprising a polymeric support and grafted thereon a mixture of a crosslinked organopolysiloxane and from about 10 to about 90% by weight uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil which mixture has a cone penetration of about 100 to 350 (10- 1 mm) and an ultimate elongation of at least about 100%.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
19 words
An article according to claim 9 wherein the uncrosslinked organopolysiloxane oil is present between about 25% and about 75%.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
30 words
An article according to claim 9 or 10 wherein wherein the organopolysiloxane material comprises a polydi- methysiloxane and up to about 5% of the polydimethylsiloxane is terminated with divinylmethylsiloxane groups.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
22 words
An article according to any one of claims 9 to 11 wherein the irradiation is by ultraviolet light or an electron beam.
