Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 90 words
In an aerosol composition containing an aqueous aerosol-dispersible media and a propellant, the improvement which comprises the presence of a corrosion inhibiting composition comprising 15 wt. % to 85 wt. % of nitroalkane containing 1-3 carbon atoms and 85 wt. % to 15 wt. % of cocoamide of diethanolamine wherein the mole ratio of the diethanolamine to coconut fatty acid is 1:1 to 2:1, said corrosion inhibiting composition being present in an amount sufficient to prevent more than light corrosion of a tin-plated steel aerosol can containing said aerosol composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 90 words
In an aerosol composition containing an aqueous aerosol-dispersible media and a propellant, the improvement which comprises the presence of a corrosion inhibiting composition comprising 15 wt. % to 85 wt. % of nitroalkane containing 1-3 carbon atoms and 85 wt. % to 15 wt. % of cocoamide of diethanolamine wherein the mole ratio of the diethanolamine to coconut fatty acid is 1:1 to 2:1, said corrosion inhibiting composition being present in an amount sufficient to prevent more than light corrosion of a tin-plated steel aerosol can containing said aerosol composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the nitroalkane is nitromethane and the mole ratio of diethanolamine to coconut fatty acid in the cocoamide is 1:1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the nitroalkane is nitromethane and the mole ratio of diethanolamine to coconut fatty acid in the cocoamide is 2:1.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
The composition of claim 1 comprising 40 wt. % to 60 wt. % nitroalkane and 60 wt. % to 40 wt. % cocoamide of diethanolamine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The composition of claim 4 in which the nitroalkane is nitromethane.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 89 words
In an aerosol propellant for use in a water-based aerosol composition, the improvement which comprises the presence of a corrosion inhibitor composition comprising 15 wt. % to 85 wt. % of nitroalkane containing 1-3 carbon atoms and 85 wt. % to 15 wt. % of cocoamide of diethanolamine wherein the mole ratio of the diethanolamine to coconut fatty acid is 1:1 to 2:1, said corrosion inhibiting composition being present in an amount sufficient to prevent more than light corrosion of a tin-plated steel aerosol can containing said aerosol composition.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 89 words
In an aerosol propellant for use in a water-based aerosol composition, the improvement which comprises the presence of a corrosion inhibitor composition comprising 15 wt. % to 85 wt. % of nitroalkane containing 1-3 carbon atoms and 85 wt. % to 15 wt. % of cocoamide of diethanolamine wherein the mole ratio of the diethanolamine to coconut fatty acid is 1:1 to 2:1, said corrosion inhibiting composition being present in an amount sufficient to prevent more than light corrosion of a tin-plated steel aerosol can containing said aerosol composition.
