Abstract

Abstract A castable ceramic composition comprising finely divided particles of ceramic solids dispersed in a solution of alkyl acrylate/alkyl methacrylate/carboxylic acid or amine multipolymer in solvent. The ratio of the weight average and number average molecular weights of the multipolymer must be from 2 to 5.5.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
An organic medium for the dispersion of inorganic solids consisting essentially of a. a mixture of compatible polymers of 0-100% wt. C 1-8 alkyl methacrylate, 100-0% wt. C 1-8 alkyl acrylate and 0-5% ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or ethylenically unsaturated amine dissolved in b. a nonaqueous organic solvent, the polymers being further characterized as having a number average molecular weight (M n ) of 50,000 to 100,000, a weight average molecular weight (M w ) of 150,000 to 350,000, the ratio of M w to M n being no greater than 5.5, the total amount of unsaturated carboxylic acid or unsaturated amine in the polymer mixture is 0.2-2.0% wt. and the glass transition temperature of the polymer and plasticizer therein, if any, is -30° to +45° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 127 words
An organic medium for the dispersion of inorganic solids consisting essentially of a. a mixture of compatible polymers of 0-100% wt. C 1-8 alkyl methacrylate, 100-0% wt. C 1-8 alkyl acrylate and 0-5% ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or ethylenically unsaturated amine dissolved in b. a nonaqueous organic solvent, the polymers being further characterized as having a number average molecular weight (M n ) of 50,000 to 100,000, a weight average molecular weight (M w ) of 150,000 to 350,000, the ratio of M w to M n being no greater than 5.5, the total amount of unsaturated carboxylic acid or unsaturated amine in the polymer mixture is 0.2-2.0% wt. and the glass transition temperature of the polymer and plasticizer therein, if any, is -30° to +45° C.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
