Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 113 words
The process of enhancing the bonding of polyurethane sealants and caulk compositions to solid inorganic surfaces which comprises providing at the interface of the caulk or sealant composition and said surface a silane, or the hydrolyzate or condensate of silane, having the formula: (S.sub.n).sub.a [R - SiX.sub.3 ].sub.b wherein n is a number ranging from about 2 to about 6, a is a number equal to one-half the free valence of R, b is a number equal to at least 2, R is a divalent organic radical joined at one end to sulphur and at the other end to silicon, and X is a hydrolyzable group comprised of halogen, alkoxy or acyloxy radicals.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 113 words
The process of enhancing the bonding of polyurethane sealants and caulk compositions to solid inorganic surfaces which comprises providing at the interface of the caulk or sealant composition and said surface a silane, or the hydrolyzate or condensate of silane, having the formula: (S.sub.n).sub.a [R - SiX.sub.3 ].sub.b wherein n is a number ranging from about 2 to about 6, a is a number equal to one-half the free valence of R, b is a number equal to at least 2, R is a divalent organic radical joined at one end to sulphur and at the other end to silicon, and X is a hydrolyzable group comprised of halogen, alkoxy or acyloxy radicals.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process of claim 1 wherein R in the silane is alkylene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 167 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the silane has the formula: ##STR21## wherein X represents a hydrolyzable group such as halogen, alkoxy and acyloxy radicals; R' represents an alkyl radical containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; y has a value of from 0 to 2 inclusive; R o represents a divalent bridging group such as alkylene and alkyleneoxy radicals containing from 1 to 7 carbon atoms; n has a value of 0 to 1; Ar represents an aryl radical containing, e.g., from 6 to 12 carbon atoms; (S) x represents a divalent polysulfide radical each free valence of which is directly bonded to an aromatic carbon atom of an Ar radical whereby each Ar radical is bonded to another Ar radical through a (S) x radical; x has a value of from 2 to 6; a' has a value of at least 2; b' has a value of at least 1; and the ratio of a' to b' is a value of not more than 2.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 11 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the silane is bis-(gamma-trimethoxysilylpropyl) disulfide.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the silane is bis-(gamma-trimethoxysilylpropyl) trisulfide.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 11 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the silane is bis-(gamma-trimethoxysilylpropyl) tetrasulfide.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 11 words
The process of claim 3 wherein the silane is bis-(4-trimethoxysilyltolyl) trisulfide.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 8 words
The product of the process of claim 1.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 8 words
The product of the process of claim 2.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 8 words
The product of the process of claim 3.
