Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 44 words
A high temperature resistant composite comprising from about 50 to 90 wt. % mica and from about 10 to 50 wt.% branched polyphenylene having at least about 8% by weight of its benzene ring structures bonded to three or more other benzene ring structures.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 44 words
A high temperature resistant composite comprising from about 50 to 90 wt. % mica and from about 10 to 50 wt.% branched polyphenylene having at least about 8% by weight of its benzene ring structures bonded to three or more other benzene ring structures.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The composite of claim 1 wherein the branched polyphenylene has an inherent viscosity ranging from about 0.025 to 0.17.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The composite of claim 2 wherein the branched polyphenylene has an inherent viscosity ranging from about 0.05 to 0.12.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 17 words
