Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
a. A blend comprising a) polyethylene terephthalate resin; b) polyethylene resin; c) polycarbonate resin; and d) graft copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile resin on an ethylene-propylene-non-­conjugated diene rubber spine, said styrene-acrylonitrile resin being present in an amount of about 5-75% by weight of the graft copolymer; and wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) expressed in parts by weight per 100 parts of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-90; (b) 1-40; (c) 5-60; and (d) 5-50.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 78 words
A blend comprising a) polyethylene terephthalate resin; b) polyethylene resin; c) polycarbonate resin; and d) graft copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile resin on an ethylene-propylene-ethylidene norbornene rubber spine, said styrene-­acrylonitrile resin being present in an amount of about 5-75% by weight of the graft copolymer; and wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) expressed in parts by weight per 100 parts of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-90; (b) 1-40; (c) 5-60; (d) 5-50.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 94 words
A blend comprising a) polyethylene terephthalate resin; b) polyethylene resin; c) polycarbonate resin; and d) graft copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile resin on an ethylene-propylene-ethylidene norbornene rubber spine, said styrene-­acrylonitrile resin being present in an amount of about 5-75% by weight of the graft copolymer, said graft copolymer being an inverted composition in which the rubber is a discontinuous phase; and wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) expressed in parts by weight per 100 parts of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-80; (b) 1-30; (c) 15-50; and (d) 15-40.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 125 words
A blend comprising a) polyethylene terephthalate resin; b) polyethylene resin; c) polycarbonate resin; and d) graft copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile resin on an ethylene-propylene-ethylidene norbornene rubber spine, said styrene-­acrylonitrile resin being present in an amount of about 30-70% by weight of the graft copolymer, the graft copolymer having been worked under shearing and fluxing conditions to disperse the rubber portion of the graft within the resinous portion thereof thus forming an inverted composition in which the rubber portion is a discontinuous phase prior to blending with (a), (b) and (c); and wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) expressed in parts by weight per 100 parts of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-90; (b) 1-40; (c) 5-60; and (d) 5-50.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
The blend of claim 1 wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-80; (b) 1-30; (c) 15-50; and (d) 15-40.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 26 words
The blend of claim 1 wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 40-60; (b) 1-20; (c) 20-40; and (d) 20-30.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 134 words
A method of making a blend of a) polyethylene terephthalate resin; b) polyethylene resin; c) polycarbonate resin; and d) graft copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile resin on an ethylene-propylene-ethylidene norbornene rubber spine, said styrene-­acrylonitrile resin being present in an amount of about 30-70% by weight of the graft copolymer, and wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) expressed in parts by weight per 100 parts of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-90; (b) 1-40; (c) 5-60; and (d) 5-50 comprising: working the graft copolymer (d) under shearing and fluxing conditions to disperse the rubber portion of the graft within the resinous portion thereof, thus forming an inverted composition in which the rubber portion is a discontinous phase, and thereafter blending the resulting inverted graft with components (a), (b) and (c).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 46 words
A method of making a blend according to claim 7 wherein said styrene-acrylonitrile resin is present from about 30-70% by weight of the graft copolymer and the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-80; (b) 1-30; (c) 15-50; and (d) 15-40.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 79 words
A blend comprising a) polyethylene terephthalate regrind; b) polyethylene regrind; c) polycarbonate resin; and d) graft copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile resin on an ethylene-propylene-non-­conjugated diene rubber spine, said styrene-acrylonitrile resin being present in an amount of about 5-75% by weight of the graft copolymer, and wherein the proportions of (a), (b), (c) and (d) expressed in parts by weight per 100 parts of (a), (b), (c) and (d) are as follows: (a) 20-90; (b) 1-40; (c) 5-60; and (d) 5-50.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 72 words
A blend comprising a) polyethylene terephthalate/polyethylene regrind; b) polycarbonate resin; and c) graft copolymer of styrene-acrylonitrile resin on an ethylene-propylene-non-­conjugated diene rubber spine, said styrene-acrylonitrile resin being present in an amount of about 5-75% by weight of the graft copolymer, and wherein the proportions of (a), (b), and (c) expressed in parts by weight per 100 parts of (a), (b) and (c) are as follows: (a) 20-90; (b) 5-60; and (c) 5-50.
