Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 77 words
A SHELF-STABLE LATEX COMPOSITION SUITABLE AS A BACKING MATERIAL FOR TEXTILES WHEREIN THE COMPOSITION COMPRISES AN ANIONICALLY STABILIZED LATEX OF A THERMOPLASTIC ORGANIC POLYMER A FILLER A THICKNENER FOR THE LATEX AND A QUATERNIZED EPIHALOHYDRIN POLMER HAVING A MOLECULAR WEIGHT IN THE RANGE FROM ABOUT 120 TO ABOUT 200,000 AND A DEGREE OF QUATERNIZATION IN THE RANGE FROM ABOUT 50 TO 100 MOLE PERCENT IN AN AMOUNT SUFFICIENT TO MEASURABLY REDUCE THE VOLUME RESISTIVITY OF SAID COMPOSITION.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 77 words
A SHELF-STABLE LATEX COMPOSITION SUITABLE AS A BACKING MATERIAL FOR TEXTILES WHEREIN THE COMPOSITION COMPRISES AN ANIONICALLY STABILIZED LATEX OF A THERMOPLASTIC ORGANIC POLYMER A FILLER A THICKNENER FOR THE LATEX AND A QUATERNIZED EPIHALOHYDRIN POLMER HAVING A MOLECULAR WEIGHT IN THE RANGE FROM ABOUT 120 TO ABOUT 200,000 AND A DEGREE OF QUATERNIZATION IN THE RANGE FROM ABOUT 50 TO 100 MOLE PERCENT IN AN AMOUNT SUFFICIENT TO MEASURABLY REDUCE THE VOLUME RESISTIVITY OF SAID COMPOSITION.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the quaternized epihalohydrin polymer is polyepichlorohydrin quaternized with trialkylamine wherein alkyl has one or two carbon atoms, said quaternized polyepichlorohydrin having a molecular weight in the range from about 120 to about 2000.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 51 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the quaternized epihalohydrin polymer has a molecular weight in the range from about 2000 to about 200,000 and the composition contains from about 0.5 to about 20 dry weight parts of a water-soluble salt based on the 100 dry weight parts of latex polymer solids.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 11 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein the salt is sodium chloride.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 78 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the composition comprises on a dry basis from about 20 to about 35 weight percent of latex polymer solids, from about 62 to 79 weight percent of filler, from about 1 to about 3 weight percent of quaternized polyepihalohydrin and an amount of thickener effective to provide a Brookfield viscosity in the range from about 6,000 to about 15, 000 centipoise at ambient temperature using a No. 5 spindle at 20 rpm.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the quaternized epihalohydrin polymer is represented by the formula
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 14 words
The composition of claim 6 wherein each of R2, R3 and R4 are methyl.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 17 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the filler is calcium carbonate and the thickener is sodium polyacrylate.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 17 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the composition is applied as a backing to a textile fabric.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 15 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the composition is applied as a backing to carpet.
