Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
79 words
A composition consisting essentially of a zinc salt of a fatty acid having from about 10 to about 20 carbon atoms dispersed throughout an alkylphenoxy polyglycol having the structural formula: wherein R is an alkyl group containing from about 8 to about 12 carbon atoms and x is a number having a value of from about 2 to about 10, wherein the concentration of said zinc salt in said composition is from about 50 to about 80 weight percent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
79 words
A composition consisting essentially of a zinc salt of a fatty acid having from about 10 to about 20 carbon atoms dispersed throughout an alkylphenoxy polyglycol having the structural formula: wherein R is an alkyl group containing from about 8 to about 12 carbon atoms and x is a number having a value of from about 2 to about 10, wherein the concentration of said zinc salt in said composition is from about 50 to about 80 weight percent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
44 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein said zinc salt is a member selected from the group consisting of zinc stearate and zinc oleate and said alkylphenoxy polyglycol is a member selected from the group consisting of monononylphenoxy tetraethyleneglycol, monononylphenoxy heptaethyleneglycol and monododecylphenoxy hexaethyleneglycol.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
A composition according to claim 1 consisting essentially of a mixture of zinc stearate and monononylphenoxy heptaethyleneglycol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
17 words
A composition according to claim 1 consisting essentially of a mixture of zinc oleate and monododecylphenoxy hexaethyleneglycol.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
14 words
A composition according to claim 1 consisting essentially of zinc stearate and monononylphenoxy tetraethyleneglycol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
87 words
A method for producing the composition of claim 1 which comprises admixing zinc oxide, a fatty acid having from about 10 to about 20 carbon atoms and an alkylphenoxy polyglycol having the structural formula: wherein R is an alkyl group containing from about 8 to about 12 carbon atoms and x is a number having a value of from about 2 to about 10, under conditions sufficient to cause the zinc oxide to react with the fatty acid and form the zinc salt of the fatty acid.
