Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
An overcoated sheet according to claim 1 wherein the unsaturated organic acid is acrylic acid or methacrylic acid.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
An overcoated sheet according to claim 1 wherein a matted layer consisting essentially of a resinous binder and a matting agent is further provided between the substrate and the overcoat layer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 26 words
An overcoated sheet according to claim 1 in which said substrate is selected from the group consisting of paper, plastic films, synthetic paper and metal films.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 53 words
An overcoated sheet comprising: a plastic film substrate; a matted layer consisting essentially of a resinous binder and a matting agent, said matted layer being formed on at least one surface of said substrate; and an overcoat layer on said matted layer, said overcoat layer consisting essentially of a styrene/butyl-methacrylate/unsaturated organic acid-containing copolymer.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 53 words
An overcoated sheet comprising: a plastic film substrate; a matted layer consisting essentially of a resinous binder and a matting agent, said matted layer being formed on at least one surface of said substrate; and an overcoat layer on said matted layer, said overcoat layer consisting essentially of a styrene/butyl-methacrylate/unsaturated organic acid-containing copolymer.
