Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 54 words
A composition comprising; a. a resinous polymer of propylene comprising an alpha, beta-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid modified resinous polymer of propylene; and b. polyfunctional cross-linker containing vicinal polyepoxides wherein said polyfunctional cross-linker is present in a concentration of 0.5 to 15 parts by weight cross-linker per 100 parts by weight resinous polymer of propylene.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 54 words
A composition comprising; a. a resinous polymer of propylene comprising an alpha, beta-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid modified resinous polymer of propylene; and b. polyfunctional cross-linker containing vicinal polyepoxides wherein said polyfunctional cross-linker is present in a concentration of 0.5 to 15 parts by weight cross-linker per 100 parts by weight resinous polymer of propylene.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 38 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein a fire retardant is present in a concentration of 0.5 to 50 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the total concentration of resinous polymer of propylene and polyfunctional cross-linker.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 38 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein said resinous polymer of propylene comprises an unmodified resinous polymer of propylene in a concentration of 0.5 to 3 parts by weight per each part by weight modified resinous polymer of propylene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 38 words
The composition of claim 2, wherein said resinous polymer of propylene comprises an unmodified resinous polymer of propylene in a concentration of 0.5 to 3 parts by weight per each part by weight modified resinous polymer of propylene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 19 words
The composition of claim 4, wherein said unmodified resinous polymer of propylene comprises at least 75% by weight propylene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 48 words
The composition of claim 4, wherein said modified resinous polymer of propylene comprises a backbone polymer containing at least 75% by weight propylene and the pendant acid moieties provided by alpha, beta-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid in said polymer comprise from 0.5 to 25% by weight of said polymer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 18 words
The composition of claim 6, wherein said fire retardant comprises an antimony compound and a halogenated organic compound.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 16 words
The composition of claim 6, wherein said alpha, beta-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid moieties are methacrylic acid.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 15 words
