Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 39 words
An easily dispersible composition having a high degree of granularity and free-fluidity which comprises a powder of a water-soluble polymer having flocculating ability and a hydrated sodium sulfate, and if required a hydrated magnesium sulfate and/or a hydroscopic agent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 39 words
An easily dispersible composition having a high degree of granularity and free-fluidity which comprises a powder of a water-soluble polymer having flocculating ability and a hydrated sodium sulfate, and if required a hydrated magnesium sulfate and/or a hydroscopic agent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein the water soluble polymer is a nonionic, anionic or cationic polymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein the water soluble polymer is a nonionic polyacrylamide, an anionic partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide or sodium carboxymethylcellulose, or cationic aminoethyl polyacrylate or cation modified polyacrylamide.
Claim 5
