Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
53 words
A molding composition suitable for thermoplastic molding operations which comprises a blend of: (a) 10-90% by weight polymethyl methacrylate; (b) 10-90% by weight of the copolymer derived by copolymerizing from about 5% to about 35% imide derivative of an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid, and from about 65% to about 95% vinyl aromatic composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
53 words
A molding composition suitable for thermoplastic molding operations which comprises a blend of: (a) 10-90% by weight polymethyl methacrylate; (b) 10-90% by weight of the copolymer derived by copolymerizing from about 5% to about 35% imide derivative of an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid, and from about 65% to about 95% vinyl aromatic composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the concentration range of each of (a) and (b) is from about 25% to about 75%.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 2 in which the concentration of each of (a) and (b) is about 50%.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
The composition of claim 1 in which (b) is a copolymer of maleimide and styrene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
13 words
The composition of claim 4 in which the copolymer contains about 8% maleimide.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
