Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
64 words
THE PROCESS OF PRODUCING POLYTERPENE RESINS COMPRISING THE STEPS OF POLYMERIZING A TERPENE IN A SOLVENT MEDIUM IN THE PRESENCE OF METAL HALIDE POLYMERIZATION CATALYST, SAID SOLVENT MEDIUM COMPRISING A RELATIVELY LOWER BOILING AROMATIC HYDROCARBON SOLVENT AND A RELATIVELY HIGHER BOILING ALIPHATIC HYDROCARBON SOLVENT REMOVING SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE AROMATIC HYDROCARBON SOLVENT FROM THE POLYMER SOLUTION BY DISTILLATION, AND THEREAFTER RECOVERING THE TERPENE POLYMER.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
116 words
THE PROCESS OF PRODUCING DIPENTENE POLYMER RESINS COMPRISING GRADUALLY ADDING DIPENTENE TO A SOLVENT MEDIUM CONTAINING ALUMINUM CHLORIDE CATALYST WHILE MAINTAINING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE RANGE OF 30*-55*C., THEREBY POLYMERIZING THE DIPENTENE, SAID SOLVENT MEDIUM CONSTITUTING FROM 60% TO 100% BY WEIGHT OF THE DIPENTENE AND INCLUDING TOLUENE IN AN AMOUNT IN THE RANGE 25% TO 50% BY WEIGHT OF THE DIPENTENE WITH THE REMAINDER OF THE SOLVENT MEDIUM BEING PETROLEUM NAPHTHA, HEATING THE RESULTING POLYMER SOLUTION TO A TEMPERATURE IN THE RANGE OF 110*-200*C. IN THE PRESENCE OF LIME AND ACID ACTIVATED AND DISTILLING OFF SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE TOLUENE, FILTERING THE SOLUTION, AND REMOVING THE NAPHTHA FROM THE FILTRATE AND THEREBY RECOVERING DIPENTENE POLYMER.
