Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
162 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition which comprises a blend of: (a) 50 to 99% wt % of a polyester comprising a dicarboxylic acid component, wherein at least 50 mol % of said dicarboxylic acid component is terephthalic acid, and a glycol component, wherein at least 50 mol % of said glycol component is 1,4-butanediol; (b) 50 to 1 wt % of α-olefin copolymer, wherein the weight percentages are based on the total weight of (a) and (b), said α-olefin copolymer being a copolymer of α-olefin selected from the group consisting of ethylene and propylene, in combination with at least one vinyl monomer selected from the group consisting of vinyl acetate acrylic acid, zinc acrylate, calcium acrylate, sodium acrylate, methyl acrylate, glycidyl acrylate, methacrylic acid, maleic acid, and maleic anhydride, and (c) 0.1 to 20 parts by weight on the basis of 100 parts by weight of (a) and (b) of an epoxy compound having one or two epoxy groups attached to a molecule.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
162 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition which comprises a blend of: (a) 50 to 99% wt % of a polyester comprising a dicarboxylic acid component, wherein at least 50 mol % of said dicarboxylic acid component is terephthalic acid, and a glycol component, wherein at least 50 mol % of said glycol component is 1,4-butanediol; (b) 50 to 1 wt % of α-olefin copolymer, wherein the weight percentages are based on the total weight of (a) and (b), said α-olefin copolymer being a copolymer of α-olefin selected from the group consisting of ethylene and propylene, in combination with at least one vinyl monomer selected from the group consisting of vinyl acetate acrylic acid, zinc acrylate, calcium acrylate, sodium acrylate, methyl acrylate, glycidyl acrylate, methacrylic acid, maleic acid, and maleic anhydride, and (c) 0.1 to 20 parts by weight on the basis of 100 parts by weight of (a) and (b) of an epoxy compound having one or two epoxy groups attached to a molecule.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
41 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition as defined in claim 1, wherein said dicarboxylic acid component includes 50 to 95 mol % terephthalic acid and 5 to 50 mol % isophthalic acid, and said glycol component includes at least 50 mol % butanediol.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition as defined in claim 2, wherein said glycol component consists essentially of 1,4-butanediol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition as defined in claim 1, wherein a content of said vinyl monomer unit in said α-olefine copolymer is 0.1 to 40 wt %.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
34 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition as defined in claim 1, wherein said α-olefine copolymer is a α-olefine-vinylacetate copolymer selected from the group consisting of ethylenevinylacetate copolymer, propylene-vinylacetate copolymer, ethylene-propylene-vinylacetate, ethylene-acrylic acid-vinylacetate copolymer and ethylene-glycidylmethacrylate-vinylacetate copolymer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
20 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition as defined in claim 5 wherein said α-olefin-vinylacetate copolymer contains 10 to 40 wt % vinylacetate.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition as defined in claim 1 wherein the amount of said epoxy compound is 0.5 to 15 parts by weight.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
47 words
A thermoplastic resinous composition as defined in claim 1 wherein said composition further includes 0.5 to 30 wt % of a polymeric material selected from the group consisting of polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene tere/isophthalate and polypropylene, said weight based on the total weight of (a), (b), and (c).
