Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
A polyethylene terephthalate block copolyester in which the copolyester comprises a polymer of a derivative of a hydantoin diacid and a hydantoin diol having the general formula ##EQU2## where R 1 and R 2 are hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, aralkyl and heterocyclic compounds, n and n' are integers from 1 to 10 and X is --OH in the hydantoin diol and --COOH in the hydantoin diacid said copolyester block being present in the polyethylene terephthalate block copolyester in an amount of from 1 to 20 percent by weight of said block copolyester.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
91 words
A polyethylene terephthalate block copolyester in which the copolyester comprises a polymer of a derivative of a hydantoin diacid and a hydantoin diol having the general formula ##EQU2## where R 1 and R 2 are hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, aralkyl and heterocyclic compounds, n and n' are integers from 1 to 10 and X is --OH in the hydantoin diol and --COOH in the hydantoin diacid said copolyester block being present in the polyethylene terephthalate block copolyester in an amount of from 1 to 20 percent by weight of said block copolyester.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
102 words
