Abstract
Abstract An aqueous latex coating composition comprising a non-conductive, water-insoluble copolymer of (1) methacrylic acid or maleic acid, (2) a styrene compound, and (3) a conjugated diene hydrocarbon or an alkyl ester of methacrylic acid or of acrylic acid is coated onto a sheet which is conductive or is non-conductive but may have a conductive layer adhered thereto. Thereby, sheets having a dielectric coating for electrographic printing are produced.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
An electrostatic sheet suitable for electrographic printing comprising a substrate in the form of a flexible or rigid sheet having adhered to at least one surface thereof a continuous dielectric film consisting essentially of a copolymer of from about 0.5 percent to about 8 percent of methacrylic acid of maleic acid and the balance consisting essentially of (a) a styrene compound and (b) a conjugated diene hydrocarbon or an alkyl ester of acrylic acid or of methacrylic acid; said alkyl ester having from 1 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
91 words
An electrostatic sheet suitable for electrographic printing comprising a substrate in the form of a flexible or rigid sheet having adhered to at least one surface thereof a continuous dielectric film consisting essentially of a copolymer of from about 0.5 percent to about 8 percent of methacrylic acid of maleic acid and the balance consisting essentially of (a) a styrene compound and (b) a conjugated diene hydrocarbon or an alkyl ester of acrylic acid or of methacrylic acid; said alkyl ester having from 1 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
The electrostatic sheet of claim 1 in which the film includes a pigment in an amount not greater than about 2 parts for each part of the copolymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
The electrostatic sheet of claim 1 in which the amount of copolymerized methacrylic acid or maleic acid is from about 1 percent to about 5 percent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
16 words
The electrostatic sheet of claim 3 in which the copolymer is a copolymer of methacrylic acid.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
12 words
The electrostatic sheet of claim 1 in which the substrate is paper.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
20 words
The electrostatic sheet of claim 1 in which the substrate also is coated with or impregnated with an electroconductive material.
