Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
187 words
A polymerisable composition consisting essentially of (a) at least one polymerisable olefinically unsaturated oligomer which (i) may be linear or branched, (ii) is derived from one or more aromatic compounds and one or more aldehydes, (iii) has a backbone which consists essentially of repeat units--(Ar 1 --CHR 1 ) wherein Ar 1 , each of which may be the same or different, is an aromatic group, or a suitable substituted derivative thereof, and R 1 , each of which may be the same or different, is a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbyl group, (iv) has pendant and/or terminal acyloxymethyl groups attached to the oligomer backbone in which the acyl group is derived from an olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid, (v) has a functionality of between 2 and 6, and (vi) has a number average molecular weight of between 900 to 1100 and a weight average molecular weight of between 1900 and 2500; (b) one or more polymeric binders each of which has a molecular weight of between 10,000 and 1,000,000; and (c) a photoinitiator system for initiating polymerisation of the said at least one polymerisable olefinically unsaturated oligomer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
187 words
A polymerisable composition consisting essentially of (a) at least one polymerisable olefinically unsaturated oligomer which (i) may be linear or branched, (ii) is derived from one or more aromatic compounds and one or more aldehydes, (iii) has a backbone which consists essentially of repeat units--(Ar 1 --CHR 1 ) wherein Ar 1 , each of which may be the same or different, is an aromatic group, or a suitable substituted derivative thereof, and R 1 , each of which may be the same or different, is a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbyl group, (iv) has pendant and/or terminal acyloxymethyl groups attached to the oligomer backbone in which the acyl group is derived from an olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid, (v) has a functionality of between 2 and 6, and (vi) has a number average molecular weight of between 900 to 1100 and a weight average molecular weight of between 1900 and 2500; (b) one or more polymeric binders each of which has a molecular weight of between 10,000 and 1,000,000; and (c) a photoinitiator system for initiating polymerisation of the said at least one polymerisable olefinically unsaturated oligomer.
