Claim 6
Dependent Claim 142 words
A reusable pressure-sensitive lift-off correction element for removing correctable images of type ink containing a polyamide resin which are typed onto an original sheet, which comprises a flexible foundation, and a pressure-sensitive layer coated on one surface of the flexible foundation, said pressure-sensitive layer comprising a rubber-like resin binder material selected from the group consisting of styrene-butadiene copolymer, polyester resin, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyvinyl butyral and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, a tackifier resin, and from 0.5 to 50 parts by weight, per each 10 parts by weight of the tackifier resin of a plasticizer for plasticizing the polyamide resin of the correctable images of type ink, whereby correctable images which are adhered to said layer and removed from said original sheet are rendered adhesive by said plasticizing action to permit additional correctable images of type ink to be adhered thereto during reuse.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 170 words
A reusable pressure-sensitive lift-off correction element having a pressure-adhesive layer, each area of which is capable of bonding to and lifting-off a plurality of correctable images which are typed onto an original sheet with correctable imaging composition containing a polyamide resin binder material, said element comprising a flexible foundation having a pressure-adhesive layer on one surface thereof, said layer comprising 0.5 to 100 parts by weight of a rubber-like resin binder material selected from the group consisting of styrene-butadiene copolymer, polyester, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate, polyvinyl butyral and ethylene-vinyl acetate, 10 parts by weight of a tackifier resin selected from the group consisting of epoxy, styrene, acrylic, ketone, xylene, gum rosin, and alpha pinene resins, and 0.5 to 50 parts by weight of a plasticizer which has a plasticizing action on the polyamide resin of the correctable images, whereby correctable images which are adhered to said layer and removed from said original sheet are rendered adhesive by said plasticizing action to permit additional correctable images to be adhered thereto during reuse.
