Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 51 words
a mol ratio of aromatic amine to phenol in the range of 75: 25 to 10:90; wherein the amounts of reactants are such that for each 100 parts by weight of said aromatic amine-modified resole resin condensate there are from 5 to 200 parts by weight of said aromatic polycarboxylic compound.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 25 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein the phenol is selected from the group consisting of phenol, t-butylphenol, p-phenylphenol, p-nonylphenol, p-chlorophenol, alpha-naphthol, 3,5-xylenol and bis-phenol A.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 54 words
a combined formaldehyde to aniline plus phenol mol ratio of from 1.0 to 2.0; 3 a mol ratio of aniline to phenol in the range of 50:50 to 20: 80; there being for each 100 parts by weight of said aniline-modified resole from 5 to 200 parts by weight of said aromatic polycarboxylic compound.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein the aromatic amine is selected from the group consisting of aniline, o-toluidine and o-chloroaniline.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 10 words
A composition of claim 1, wherein the aldehyde is formaldehyde.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 6 words
A thermoset composition of claim 1.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein said compounds are suspended in an organic solvent medium.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 16 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein said aromatic polycarboxylic compound is an ester of trimellitic anhydride.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 17 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein said aromatic polycarboxylic compound is an ester of benzophenone tetracarboxylic anhydride.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 16 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein said aromatic polycarboxylic compound is an ester of pyromellitic anhydride.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 71 words
A thermosettable resin composition comprising: A. an aromatic polycarboxylic compound selected from the group consisting of mellitic anhydride, pyromellitic dianhydride, and benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride, mellitic acid dialkyl ester, pyromellitic acid dialkyl ester, pyromellitic acid tetraalkyl ester, benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid dialkyl ester and benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid tetraalkyl ester, wherein the alkyl groups contain one to six carbon atoms; B. an aniline-modified phenol formaldehyde condensate prepared under basic conditions, characterized by having:
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 30 words
A thermosettable resin composition of claim 10, wherein there are between 15 and 90 parts by weight of aromatic polycarboxylic compound for each 100 parts by weight of aniline-modified resole.
