Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 186 words
A process for the production of a regenerated cellulose tube containing a portion of water and chemical plasticizer wherein a liquid aqueous copolymer dispersion containing polyvinylidene chloride is continuously applied to the inside surface of a tube composed of regenerated cellulose, characterized in that a liquid coating is applied to the inside surface of the wall of a tube on the basis of cellulose hydrate that is in its gelled state, the coating being composed of an aqueous copolymer dispersion the dispersed portion of which consists of a copolymer obtained by copolymerization of a mixture of polymerizable monomers, this mixture consisting of 70 to 92 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride and of 8 to 30 percent by weight of acrylic acid and acrylic acid ester, or acrylic acid and methacrylic acid ester, or acrylic acid, acrylic acid ester and methacrylic acid ester, or methacrylic acid and acrylic acid ester, or methacrylic acid and methacrylic acid ester, or methacrylic acid, acrylic acid ester and methacrylic acid ester, after which the tube is dried by heating in a single step heating action, and then wetted with water.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 186 words
A process for the production of a regenerated cellulose tube containing a portion of water and chemical plasticizer wherein a liquid aqueous copolymer dispersion containing polyvinylidene chloride is continuously applied to the inside surface of a tube composed of regenerated cellulose, characterized in that a liquid coating is applied to the inside surface of the wall of a tube on the basis of cellulose hydrate that is in its gelled state, the coating being composed of an aqueous copolymer dispersion the dispersed portion of which consists of a copolymer obtained by copolymerization of a mixture of polymerizable monomers, this mixture consisting of 70 to 92 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride and of 8 to 30 percent by weight of acrylic acid and acrylic acid ester, or acrylic acid and methacrylic acid ester, or acrylic acid, acrylic acid ester and methacrylic acid ester, or methacrylic acid and acrylic acid ester, or methacrylic acid and methacrylic acid ester, or methacrylic acid, acrylic acid ester and methacrylic acid ester, after which the tube is dried by heating in a single step heating action, and then wetted with water.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 47 words
The process as defined in claim 1, wherein the dispersed substance of the aqueous dispersion consists of a copolymer of 90 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride, 1 percent by weight of acrylic acid, and 9 percent by weight of acrylic acid ester or methacrylic acid ester.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 45 words
The process as defined in claim 1, wherein the dispersed substance of the aqueous dispersion is composed of a copolymer of 90 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride, 1 percent by weight of acrylic acid, and 9 percent by weight of acrylic acid methyl ester.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 13 words
The process as defined in claim 1, wherein the tube wall is filter-reinforced.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 152 words
Process for the production of tube based on regenerated cellulose which comprises applying a liquid layer to the inside surface of a tube based on regenerated cellulose which is in its gelled state, said liquid layer consisting of an aqueous dispersion the dispersed portion of which is composed of a mixture of a first and a second copolymer in a ratio of 1:1 to 4:1, the first copolymer consisting of 90 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride, 1 percent by weight of acrylic acid, and 9 percent by weight of acrylic and methyl ester, and the second copolymer consisting of 85 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride, 2 percent by weight of acrylic acid, 6 percent by weight of acrylic acid methyl ester, and 7 percent by weight of acrylic acid butyl ester, after which the tube is dried by heating in a single step heating action, and then wetted with water.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 152 words
Process for the production of tube based on regenerated cellulose which comprises applying a liquid layer to the inside surface of a tube based on regenerated cellulose which is in its gelled state, said liquid layer consisting of an aqueous dispersion the dispersed portion of which is composed of a mixture of a first and a second copolymer in a ratio of 1:1 to 4:1, the first copolymer consisting of 90 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride, 1 percent by weight of acrylic acid, and 9 percent by weight of acrylic and methyl ester, and the second copolymer consisting of 85 percent by weight of vinylidene chloride, 2 percent by weight of acrylic acid, 6 percent by weight of acrylic acid methyl ester, and 7 percent by weight of acrylic acid butyl ester, after which the tube is dried by heating in a single step heating action, and then wetted with water.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
The process according to claim 5, wherein the ratio of the first and second copolymers in the dispersion is 1:1.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
The process according to claim 5, wherein the ratio of the first and second copolymers in the polymer dispersion is 4:1.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process according to claim 5, wherein the tube wall is fiber-reinforced.
