Abstract
Abstract This invention relates a relatively low molecular weight polystyrene having a narrow molecular weight distribution range in combination with a 1 to 3-aromatic hydrocarbon ring compound, chloromethylated derivatives thereof, quaternary amine derivatives of said chloromethylated derivatives and the use of such amines as electroconductive resins for the preparation of electroconductive coated papers useful for electrographic printing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A composition comprising, by weight: Component A. from about 85 to about 95 parts of a polystyrene characterized by a weight average molecular weight, M w , of about 5,000 to about 45,000 and an average molecular weight distribution, M w /M n , of about 2 to about 6; and Component B. from about 15 to about 5 parts of a cyclic hydrocarbon of from 9 to about 25 carbon atoms which may contain up to two hetero-oxygen atoms, comprising 1 to 3 benzoaromatic rings; which composition has been chloromethylated or bromomethylated to introduce chloromethyl or bromomethyl groups on about 70 to 90 percent of the aromatic rings thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
110 words
A composition comprising, by weight: Component A. from about 85 to about 95 parts of a polystyrene characterized by a weight average molecular weight, M w , of about 5,000 to about 45,000 and an average molecular weight distribution, M w /M n , of about 2 to about 6; and Component B. from about 15 to about 5 parts of a cyclic hydrocarbon of from 9 to about 25 carbon atoms which may contain up to two hetero-oxygen atoms, comprising 1 to 3 benzoaromatic rings; which composition has been chloromethylated or bromomethylated to introduce chloromethyl or bromomethyl groups on about 70 to 90 percent of the aromatic rings thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
The composition of claim 1 comprising about 88 to about 92 parts of Component A and about 8 to about 12 parts of Component B.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
