Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
68 words
An elastoplastic composition comprising a blend of about 75 to 50 parts by weight of cross-linked epichlorohydrin rubber in the form of dispersed particles of a size of 50 microns number average or less and about 25 to 50 parts by weight of poly(alkyl methacrylate) resin per 100 total parts by weight of epichlorohydrin rubber and poly(alkyl methacrylate) resin, which composition is elastomeric and processable as a thermoplastic.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
68 words
An elastoplastic composition comprising a blend of about 75 to 50 parts by weight of cross-linked epichlorohydrin rubber in the form of dispersed particles of a size of 50 microns number average or less and about 25 to 50 parts by weight of poly(alkyl methacrylate) resin per 100 total parts by weight of epichlorohydrin rubber and poly(alkyl methacrylate) resin, which composition is elastomeric and processable as a thermoplastic.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
15 words
