Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 147 words
An aqueous coating composition comprising, for each 100 parts by weight of aqueous liquid medium, from about 25 to about 125 parts of dispersed polymer particles of vinylidene fluoride homopolymer or copolymer of at least 50 mol percent vinylidene fluoride copolymerized with at least one other copolymerizable monomer and from about 3 to about 50 parts of emulsified liquid epoxy resin, and, for each part by weight of liquid epoxy resin, from about 0.25 to about 2.5 parts of an emulsifying agent comprising an acidified aminoalkylated polymer having pendant aminoalkylate groups of the formula ##STR2## wherein R 1 and R 2 are independantly selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl radicals having 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the average value of n ranges from about 1.0 to 2.5, and wherein said aminoalkylated polymer before aminoalkylation contains at least 3% by weight pendant-COOH groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 147 words
An aqueous coating composition comprising, for each 100 parts by weight of aqueous liquid medium, from about 25 to about 125 parts of dispersed polymer particles of vinylidene fluoride homopolymer or copolymer of at least 50 mol percent vinylidene fluoride copolymerized with at least one other copolymerizable monomer and from about 3 to about 50 parts of emulsified liquid epoxy resin, and, for each part by weight of liquid epoxy resin, from about 0.25 to about 2.5 parts of an emulsifying agent comprising an acidified aminoalkylated polymer having pendant aminoalkylate groups of the formula ##STR2## wherein R 1 and R 2 are independantly selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl radicals having 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the average value of n ranges from about 1.0 to 2.5, and wherein said aminoalkylated polymer before aminoalkylation contains at least 3% by weight pendant-COOH groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the vinylidene fluoride polymer is a copolymer of about 62 weight percent vinylidene fluoride, about 24 weight percent tetrafluoroethylene and about 14 weight percent of hexafluoropropene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 58 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the liquid epoxy resin consists of a mixture of from about 10 to about 12 parts by weight of a liquid epoxy resin of the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A and from about 1 to about 3 parts by weight of a liquid epoxy resin of the diglycidyl ether of propylene glycol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
The composition of claim 1 which contains from about 10 to about 170 parts by weight of dispersed, finely-divided pigment for each 100 parts by weight of vinylidene fluoride polymer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 58 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein the liquid epoxy resin consists of a mixture of from about 10 to about 12 parts by weight of a liquid epoxy resin of the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A and from about 1 to about 3 parts by weight of a liquid epoxy resin of the diglycidyl ether of propylene glycol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
The composition of claim 5 which contains from about 10 to about 170 parts by weight of dispersed, finely-divided pigment for each 100 parts by weight of vinylidene fluoride polymer.
