Abstract
Abstract An anti-stick, non-liquid absorbing laminated gasket and a process for its preparation are disclosed in which a metallic base sheet has a bonded fibrous layer adhered to at least one face of the sheet. The fibrous layer contains a liquid-impermeable resinous impregnant and an anti-stick coat disposed along an outer face of the fibrous layer. The resinous impregnant may extend to the outer face of the fibrous layer while leaving fibers thereof exposed to which the anti-stick coat adheres. Or the resinous impregnant may extend beyond the outer face of the fibrous layer to form a skin and the anti-stick coat adheres to the extension of the impregnant after it is tackified by an organic solvent.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim
103 words
An anti-stick, non liquid absorbing, laminated gasket having improved resistance to delamination, said gasket comprising a metallic base sheet and a bonded fibrous layer laminated to at least one face of said base sheet in side-by-side relation, said fibrous layer containing a liquid-impermeable resinous impregnant extending throughout the fibrous layer as a substantially continuous barrier to make said layer liquid-impermeable in a direction from one face thereof to the other, and an anti-stick coat disposed along an outer face of said fibrous layer and adhered to said layer substantially solely by contact with fibers of said layer or with said resinous impregnant barrier.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
103 words
An anti-stick, non liquid absorbing, laminated gasket having improved resistance to delamination, said gasket comprising a metallic base sheet and a bonded fibrous layer laminated to at least one face of said base sheet in side-by-side relation, said fibrous layer containing a liquid-impermeable resinous impregnant extending throughout the fibrous layer as a substantially continuous barrier to make said layer liquid-impermeable in a direction from one face thereof to the other, and an anti-stick coat disposed along an outer face of said fibrous layer and adhered to said layer substantially solely by contact with fibers of said layer or with said resinous impregnant barrier.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
14 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which the fibers of said layer are asbestos.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which the bond of said fibrous layer is elastomeric.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
30 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which said resinous impregnant is a resin selected from the group consisting of epoxy, phenolformaldehyde, urea-formaldehyde, melamine-formaldehyde, phenol-furfural, cross-linked polyester, and cross-linked polyurethane resins.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
14 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which said resinous impregnant is an epoxy resin.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
20 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which said resinous impregnant is an epoxy resin containing a triazine-aldehyde or aminotriazine-aldehyde resin.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
27 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which said anti-stick coat comprises an anti-stick material selected from the group consisting of polytetraflouroethylene, silicones, polysiloxanes, graphite, talc, and bentonite.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
41 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which said liquid-impermeable resin barrier extends substantially to said outer face of the fibrous layer while leaving fibers thereof exposed, and said anti-stick coat contacts and adheres to said exposed fibers of the outer face.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
40 words
The gasket of claim 1 in which said liquid-impermeable resinous barrier extends beyond said outer face of the fibrous layer, and said anti-stick coat contacts and adheres to said extension of the impregnant without contacting fibers of said fibrous layer.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
97 words
An anti-stick, non-liquid absorbing, laminated gasket having improved resistance to delamination, said gasket comprising a metallic base sheet and a bonded fibrous layer adhered to both faces of said sheet, each fibrous layer containing a liquid-impermeable resinous impregnant extending throughout the fibrous layer without reaching an outer face of the fibrous layer to leave a non-impregnated, outer section of said layer, and an anti-stick coat covering said outer face of each fibrous layer and penetrating into said non-impregnated section to adher the fibers of said fibrous layer, said metallic sheet, bonded fibrous layers and anti-stick coat together.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
97 words
An anti-stick, non-liquid absorbing, laminated gasket having improved resistance to delamination, said gasket comprising a metallic base sheet and a bonded fibrous layer adhered to both faces of said sheet, each fibrous layer containing a liquid-impermeable resinous impregnant extending throughout the fibrous layer without reaching an outer face of the fibrous layer to leave a non-impregnated, outer section of said layer, and an anti-stick coat covering said outer face of each fibrous layer and penetrating into said non-impregnated section to adher the fibers of said fibrous layer, said metallic sheet, bonded fibrous layers and anti-stick coat together.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
91 words
An anti-stick, non-liquid absorbing, laminated gasket having improved resistance to delamination, said gasket comprising a metallic base sheet and a bonded fibrous layer adhered to both faces of said sheet, each fibrous layer containing a liquid-impermeable resinous impregnant extending throughout the fibrous layer and beyond an outer face of the fibrous layer, and an anti-stick coat covering and adhered to an organic solvent tackified surface of said resinous impregnant extending beyond said outer face of each fibrous layer, said metallic sheet, bonded fibrous layers, and anti-stick coat thereby being bound together.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
91 words
An anti-stick, non-liquid absorbing, laminated gasket having improved resistance to delamination, said gasket comprising a metallic base sheet and a bonded fibrous layer adhered to both faces of said sheet, each fibrous layer containing a liquid-impermeable resinous impregnant extending throughout the fibrous layer and beyond an outer face of the fibrous layer, and an anti-stick coat covering and adhered to an organic solvent tackified surface of said resinous impregnant extending beyond said outer face of each fibrous layer, said metallic sheet, bonded fibrous layers, and anti-stick coat thereby being bound together.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
17 words
The gasket of claim 10 or 11 in which the fibers of said fibrous layers are asbestos.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
22 words
The gasket of claim 10 or 11 in which said bonded fibrous layers comprise asbestos fibers bonded together by an elastomeric resin.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim
22 words
The gasket of claim 10 or 11 in which said resinous impregnant is an epoxy resin containing a triazine-aldehyde or aminotriazine-aldehyde resin.
