Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 116 words
A thermoplastic resin composition having improved weld strength which comprises a blend of (A) a polycarbonate resin and (B) a rubber modified copolymer prepared by polymerizing at least two kinds of monomers chosen from the group consisting of aromatic vinyl compounds, vinyl cyanides and alkyl esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids in the presence of a rubber, with (C) an epoxy group-containing olefin copolymer comprising a copolymer of at least one unsaturated epoxy compound and at least one olefin, wherein (B) comprises (b-1) a graft copolymer comprising units of the monomers and units of the rubber and (b-2) a copolymer comprising units of the monomers, and wherein the content of (b-1) is at least 10% by weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 116 words
A thermoplastic resin composition having improved weld strength which comprises a blend of (A) a polycarbonate resin and (B) a rubber modified copolymer prepared by polymerizing at least two kinds of monomers chosen from the group consisting of aromatic vinyl compounds, vinyl cyanides and alkyl esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids in the presence of a rubber, with (C) an epoxy group-containing olefin copolymer comprising a copolymer of at least one unsaturated epoxy compound and at least one olefin, wherein (B) comprises (b-1) a graft copolymer comprising units of the monomers and units of the rubber and (b-2) a copolymer comprising units of the monomers, and wherein the content of (b-1) is at least 10% by weight.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 62 words
The composition according to claim 1, wherein the rubber modified copolymer (B) comprises a copolymer obtained by polymerizing at least two kinds of monomers chosen from the group consisting of aromatic vinyl compounds, vinyl cyanides and alkyl esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids in the presence of at least one rubber chosen from the group consisting of conjugated diene rubbers and ethylene--propylene rubbers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
The composition according to claim 1, wherein the weight proportion of the polycarbonate resin (A) and the rubber modified copolymer (B) is from 10:90 to 90:10.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 32 words
The composition according to claim 1, wherein the amount of the epoxy group-containing olefin copolymer (C) is from 0.1 to 40 parts by weight to 100 parts by weight of the composition.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 32 words
The composition according to claim 1, wherein the amount of the epoxy group-containing olefin copolymer (C) is from 0.5 to 10 parts by weight to 100 parts by weight of the composition.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 32 words
The composition according to claim 3, wherein the amount of the epoxy group-containing olefin copolymer (C) is from 0.1 to 40 parts by weight to 100 parts by weight of the composition.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 16 words
The composition as in claim 6 wherein (b-1) and (b-2) are separately formed and combined together.
