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:
Claim 2
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:
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the vulcanizable elastomer is selected from natural rubber, styrene-butadiene copolymer, or ethylene-propylene terpolymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the compound of formula I is present in an amount of from 0.1 to 5.0 phr by weight, based on the weight of the elastomer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the elastomeric composition contains carbon black.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the vulcanizing agent is sulfur.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 34 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the vulcanizable elastomer is natural rubber, styrene-butadiene copolymer, or ethylene-propylene terpolymer and the compound of formula I has the organic ligand and anion both represented by formula B.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 24 words
The method of claim 6 wherein the vulcanizable elastomer is natural rubber or styrene-butadiene copolymer and the compound of formula I has the formula
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 24 words
The method of claim 6 wherein the vulcanizable elastomer is natural rubber or ethylene-propylene terpolymer and the compound of formula I has the formula
