Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
AN EQUEOUS WAX EMULSION CONTAINING FROM ABOUT 30% TO ABOUT 60%, BY WEIGHT, PARAFFIN WAX FROM ABOUT 0.2% TO 10% OF A COPOLYMER OFF THYLENE AND ACRYLIC ACID HAVING A HARDNESS (ASTM D-5) FROM ABOUT 1 TO ABOUT 5, A VISCOSITY-CPS. (BROOKFIELD) FROM ABOUT 3500 TO ABOUT 80, AND AN ACID NO. FROM ABOUT 30 TO ABOUT 90, A MINOR AMOUNT OF AN EMULSIFER, AND WATER IN AN AMOUNT SUFFICIENT TO FORM THE EMULSION.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
AN EQUEOUS WAX EMULSION CONTAINING FROM ABOUT 30% TO ABOUT 60%, BY WEIGHT, PARAFFIN WAX FROM ABOUT 0.2% TO 10% OF A COPOLYMER OFF THYLENE AND ACRYLIC ACID HAVING A HARDNESS (ASTM D-5) FROM ABOUT 1 TO ABOUT 5, A VISCOSITY-CPS. (BROOKFIELD) FROM ABOUT 3500 TO ABOUT 80, AND AN ACID NO. FROM ABOUT 30 TO ABOUT 90, A MINOR AMOUNT OF AN EMULSIFER, AND WATER IN AN AMOUNT SUFFICIENT TO FORM THE EMULSION.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The emulsion of claim 1 wherein said emulsion comprises, by weight, from about 2% to about 10% emulsifier, and water in an amount sufficient to form the emulsion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 50 words
The emulsion of claim 1 wherein said emulsion comprises, by weight, from about 40% to about 50% paraffin wax, from about 1% to about 5% of the copolymer of ethylene and acrylic acid, from about 3% to about 6% emulsifier and water in an amount sufficient to form the emulsion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
The emulsion of claim 1 wherein the emulsifier is an anionic emulsifier comprising a soap obtained by the reaction of a fatty acid and an alkanolamine.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 16 words
The emulsion of claim 1 wherein the emulsifier is a cationic emulsifier comprising an amine acetate.
