Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
A photosensitive conductive metal coating composition which is fireable in a weakly oxidizing atmosphere comprising an admixture of: a. Smooth finely divided particles of conductive metal, at least 80% wt. of which (1) have an aspect ratio of no more than 2 and (2) have a particle size of 2-6 μm, and b. Finely divided particles of cadmium-containing lead aluminosilicate glass having a softening point of 500°-600° C., at least 80% wt. of which have a particle size of 2-6 μm, the admixture of a. and b. being dispersed in a solution of c. Acrylic polymer binder, d. Volatile plasticizer, e. A photoinitiation system and f. Photohardenable monomer having at least one addition-polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated group, the plasticizer comprising from 10 to 30% wt. of the polymeric binder and the monomer comprising from 20 to 33% wt. of the polymeric binder.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 141 words
A photosensitive conductive metal coating composition which is fireable in a weakly oxidizing atmosphere comprising an admixture of: a. Smooth finely divided particles of conductive metal, at least 80% wt. of which (1) have an aspect ratio of no more than 2 and (2) have a particle size of 2-6 μm, and b. Finely divided particles of cadmium-containing lead aluminosilicate glass having a softening point of 500°-600° C., at least 80% wt. of which have a particle size of 2-6 μm, the admixture of a. and b. being dispersed in a solution of c. Acrylic polymer binder, d. Volatile plasticizer, e. A photoinitiation system and f. Photohardenable monomer having at least one addition-polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated group, the plasticizer comprising from 10 to 30% wt. of the polymeric binder and the monomer comprising from 20 to 33% wt. of the polymeric binder.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
