Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
58 words
A laminate product comprising a base material impregnated with a cured mixture of a first composition comprising two moles of aniline, about 5 to 28 moles of phenol and about 7 to 30 moles of formaldehyde and a second composition consisting essentially of an epoxy resin which is about 10% to 500% by weight of the first composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
58 words
A laminate product comprising a base material impregnated with a cured mixture of a first composition comprising two moles of aniline, about 5 to 28 moles of phenol and about 7 to 30 moles of formaldehyde and a second composition consisting essentially of an epoxy resin which is about 10% to 500% by weight of the first composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
17 words
A laminate product as stated in claim 1 wherein the base material is a cellulosic fibrous material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
A laminate product as stated in claim 1 wherein the first composition comprises two moles of aniline, about 7 moles of phenol, and about 10.5 moles of formaldehyde.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
A laminate product as stated in claim 1 wherein the second composition comprises an epoxy phenolic novalac resin with an epoxy equivalent weight of about 176 to 181.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
A laminate product as stated in claim 1 wherein the second composition is about 25% to 50% by weight of the first composition.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
98 words
A method of making a laminate product comprising: (a) Reacting a mixture comprising two moles of aniline, about 5 to 28 moles of phenol and about 7 to 30 moles of formaldehyde under reflux to produce a resole; (b) Separating said resole and adjusting the water content thereof to less than about 12% by weight; (c) Adding a solvent to said resole in an amount sufficient to bring the total solids content to about 50% by weight; (d) Adding essentially only epoxy resin to said mixture; and (e) Impregnating a base material with the composition from step (d).
Claim 8
Independent Claim
98 words
A method of making a laminate product comprising: (a) Reacting a mixture comprising two moles of aniline, about 5 to 28 moles of phenol and about 7 to 30 moles of formaldehyde under reflux to produce a resole; (b) Separating said resole and adjusting the water content thereof to less than about 12% by weight; (c) Adding a solvent to said resole in an amount sufficient to bring the total solids content to about 50% by weight; (d) Adding essentially only epoxy resin to said mixture; and (e) Impregnating a base material with the composition from step (d).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
16 words
A method as stated in claim 6 wherein the base material is a cellulosic fibrous material.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
27 words
A method as stated in claim 6 wherein the initial mixture comprises two moles of aniline, about 7 moles of phenol and about 10.5 moles of formaldehyde.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
27 words
A method as stated in claim 6 wherein the epoxy resin is an epoxy phenolic novalac resin with an epoxy equivalent weight of about 176 to 181.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
27 words
A method as stated in claim 6 wherein the epoxy resin is added in a weight of about 25% to 50% by weight of the initial mixture.
