Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 95 words
A liquid coating composition curable by ultraviolet radiation comprising a photopolymerizable polyethylenically unsaturated ester of an α, β-ethylenically unsaturated acid and a polyhydric alcohol and effective photopolymerizing amounts of (1) a tertiary aliphatic amine and (2) a phenacyl acetate represented by the formula: ##STR4## wherein R is an alkyl radical of 1 to 7 carbon atoms, X is selected from hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and Y and Z are each selected from hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, halogen or phenyl.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 95 words
A liquid coating composition curable by ultraviolet radiation comprising a photopolymerizable polyethylenically unsaturated ester of an α, β-ethylenically unsaturated acid and a polyhydric alcohol and effective photopolymerizing amounts of (1) a tertiary aliphatic amine and (2) a phenacyl acetate represented by the formula: ##STR4## wherein R is an alkyl radical of 1 to 7 carbon atoms, X is selected from hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and Y and Z are each selected from hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, halogen or phenyl.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
A coating composition according to claim 1 wherein said polymerizable ester is an ester of a polyhydric alcohol and acrylic, methacrylic or itaconic and said tertiary aliphatic amine is an N-alkyldiethanolamine.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
A coating composition according to claim 2 wherein said polymerizable ester is 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane triacrylate and said tertiary aliphatic amine is N-methyldiethanolamine.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A coating composition according to claim 1 wherein said phenacyl acetate and said tertiary aliphatic amine are each present in an amount of from about 2 to 10 percent by weight of said polymerizable ester.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
A coating composition according to claim 3 wherein X, Y and Z are hydrogen.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 11 words
A coating composition according to claim 5 wherein R is methyl.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 33 words
A coating composition according to claim 6 wherein said phenacyl acetate and said N-methyldiethanolamine are each present in an amount of from about 2 to 10 percent by weight of said polymerizable ester.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 33 words
A coating composition according to claim 7 wherein said phenacyl acetate and said N-methyldiethanolamine are each present in an amount of from about 5 to 7 percent by weight of said polymerizable ester.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 30 words
A coating composition according to claim 8 comprising 5 parts by weight of phenacyl acetate and 5 parts by weight of N-methyldiethanolamine per 100 parts by weight of 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane triacrylate.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 35 words
A method for coating a substrate with a polymeric coating which comprises coating said substrate with a composition of claim 1 and then exposing said coated substrate to an effective photopolymerizing amount of ultraviolet radiation.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 30 words
A method according to claim 10 wherein said composition comprises 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane triacrylate and from 2 to 10 percent by weight thereof of each of (1) phenacyl acetate and (2) N-methyldiethanolamine.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 11 words
The coated substrate obtained according to the method of claim 10.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 11 words
The coated substrate obtained according to the method of claim 11.
