Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
An adhesive composition comprising: (a) 100 parts by weight of a block copolymer having at least two monoalkenyl arene polymer end blocks A and at least one elastomeric conjugated diene mid block B, said blocks A comprising 10-30% by weight of the copolymer; (b) about 50 to about 200 parts by weight of a tackifying resin compatible with block B; and (c) about 10 to about 100 parts by weight of a rubber compound oil plasticizer having a saturates content of less than about 15% by weight, an aromatics content of above about 55% by weight, a specific gravity of 0.9 to 1.1 and a viscosity at 212° F of 80 to 1,000 SSU.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
An adhesive composition comprising: (a) 100 parts by weight of a block copolymer having at least two monoalkenyl arene polymer end blocks A and at least one elastomeric conjugated diene mid block B, said blocks A comprising 10-30% by weight of the copolymer; (b) about 50 to about 200 parts by weight of a tackifying resin compatible with block B; and (c) about 10 to about 100 parts by weight of a rubber compound oil plasticizer having a saturates content of less than about 15% by weight, an aromatics content of above about 55% by weight, a specific gravity of 0.9 to 1.1 and a viscosity at 212° F of 80 to 1,000 SSU.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 47 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein said block copolymer is selectively hydrogenated such that no more than 25% of the aromatic double bonds of block A are reduced by hydrogenation while at least 75% of the aliphatic double bonds of block B are reduced by hydrogenation.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein said tackifying resin is selected from the group consisting of diene-olefin copolymers, hydrogenated resins, esters of resin, polyterpenes, terpenephenol resins, and polymerized mixed olefins.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 47 words
A composition according to claim 1 including between about 10 and about 200 parts by weight of a high softening point resin compatible with block A, said high softening point resin being selected from the group consisting of coumaroneindene resins, vinyl toluene-alphamethyl styrene copolymers and polyindene resins.
