Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
88 words
A METHOD OF IMPROVING ADHESION BETWEEN A VULCANIZABLE ELASTOMERIC COMPOSITION AND A METAL SURFACE TO PROVIDE A STRONG AND DURABLE BOND, WHICH METHOD CONSISTS ESSENTIALLY OF A. ADDING TO A VULCANIZABLE ELASTOMERIC COMPOSITION FROM 0.05 PHR TO 10 PHR BY WEIGHT BASED ON THE WEIGHT OF THE ELASTOMER OF A COMPOUND OF THE GENERIC FORMULA (ORGANIC LIGAND) NICKEL(ANION) WHEREIN THE ORGANIC LIGAND IS REPRESENTED BY ONE OF THE FOLLOWING GENERIC FORMULAS AND THE ANION IS REPRESENTED BY ONE OF THE FOLLOWING GENERIC FORMULAS OR IS AN INORGANIC ANION:
