Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 156 words
An undercoating composition for photographic polyester film wherein the polyester is a condensation product of a dibasic aromatic acid and a glycol which contains (1) a compound having two or more epoxy groups in its molecule and a molecular weight of about 1,000 or less, said compound being represented by general formula (I): ##STR2## wherein R 1 to R 5 , which may be the same or different, represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, n represents an integer of 2 to 6 and A represents a linear or cyclic group having n nitrogen atoms or n oxygen atoms where the nitrogen atoms or oxygen atoms are directly bonded to the glycidyl group, a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring having two or more active nitrogen atoms in the ring, a nitrogen atom, a phosphate group or a sulfate group; and (2) water as a primary solvent or sole solvent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 156 words
An undercoating composition for photographic polyester film wherein the polyester is a condensation product of a dibasic aromatic acid and a glycol which contains (1) a compound having two or more epoxy groups in its molecule and a molecular weight of about 1,000 or less, said compound being represented by general formula (I): ##STR2## wherein R 1 to R 5 , which may be the same or different, represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, n represents an integer of 2 to 6 and A represents a linear or cyclic group having n nitrogen atoms or n oxygen atoms where the nitrogen atoms or oxygen atoms are directly bonded to the glycidyl group, a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring having two or more active nitrogen atoms in the ring, a nitrogen atom, a phosphate group or a sulfate group; and (2) water as a primary solvent or sole solvent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
The undercoating composition as claimed in claim 1, which further comprises a surfactant in an amount of about 0.01 to about 0.2% by weight based on a total amount of the undercoating composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
The undercoating composition as claimed in claim 1, which further contains a hydrophilic organic colloid in an amount of about 0.01 to about 2.5% by weight based on a total amount of the undercoating composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 36 words
The undercoating composition as claimed in claim 1, which further comprises a swelling agent for polyesters in an amount of about 0.5 to about 15% by weight based on a total amount of the undercoating composition.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
The undercoating composition of claim 1 wherein A represents a linear or cyclic group having n nitrogen atoms.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 34 words
The undercoating composition of claim 1 wherein said compound represented by general formula (I) is obtained from olefins through ozone oxydation or peroxydation or obtained by the reaction of alcohols and epihalohydrins or methylepihalohydrins.
