Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
40 words
A fibrous batt, the individual fibers of which are bonded at their intersection by melted and refrozen particles of a copolymer of vinyl chloride and a diester of vinyl unsaturated dicarboxylic acid wherein the diester is maleic acid dibutyl ester.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
40 words
A fibrous batt, the individual fibers of which are bonded at their intersection by melted and refrozen particles of a copolymer of vinyl chloride and a diester of vinyl unsaturated dicarboxylic acid wherein the diester is maleic acid dibutyl ester.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
113 words
A fiberous batt of high compressive strength, the individual fibers of which are bonded at their intersection by melted and refrozen particles of a copolymer of vinyl chloride and a diester of vinyl unsaturated dicarboxylic acid; wherein the fibers have a fiber denier from 1 to 22; and wherein the weight ratio of vinyl unsaturated dicarboxylic acid to vinyl chloride is 3:97 to 20:80; and wherein the weight ratio of the copolymer to the fibers is 3:97 to 35:65; and wherein the copolymer particles have a size range of 6 to 25 microns; and wherein the copolymer has a melting point of 135° to 190° C.; and wherein the diester is dibutyl maleate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
113 words
A fiberous batt of high compressive strength, the individual fibers of which are bonded at their intersection by melted and refrozen particles of a copolymer of vinyl chloride and a diester of vinyl unsaturated dicarboxylic acid; wherein the fibers have a fiber denier from 1 to 22; and wherein the weight ratio of vinyl unsaturated dicarboxylic acid to vinyl chloride is 3:97 to 20:80; and wherein the weight ratio of the copolymer to the fibers is 3:97 to 35:65; and wherein the copolymer particles have a size range of 6 to 25 microns; and wherein the copolymer has a melting point of 135° to 190° C.; and wherein the diester is dibutyl maleate.
