Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
54 words
A dry blend composition, that can be diluted with water to form an adhesive, a major proportion of a starch composition useful in corrugating adhesives, and an effective amount of a cold water soluble partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol composition that can increase the rate of formation of a green bond during corrugated board manufacture.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
54 words
A dry blend composition, that can be diluted with water to form an adhesive, a major proportion of a starch composition useful in corrugating adhesives, and an effective amount of a cold water soluble partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol composition that can increase the rate of formation of a green bond during corrugated board manufacture.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the polyvinyl alcohol is a low molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein the degree of hydrolysis of the polyvinyl alcohol is less than 91%.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
14 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the degree of hydrolysis is 87% to 89%.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 4 wherein the particle size of the polyvinyl alcohol is less than 80 mesh.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
103 words
A dry blend composition that can be diluted with water to form a basic boric acid compound containing adhesive, which comprises a major proportion of a starch composition useful in corrugating adhesives, and an effective amount of a cold water soluble, partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol composition having a degree of hydrolysis of less than about 91%, that can increase the rate of formation of the green bond during corrugated board manufacture, wherein the concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol composition in the adhesive composition when diluted is about 0.25 to 1.25 parts of polyvinyl alcohol composition per each 100 parts of the adhesive composition.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
103 words
A dry blend composition that can be diluted with water to form a basic boric acid compound containing adhesive, which comprises a major proportion of a starch composition useful in corrugating adhesives, and an effective amount of a cold water soluble, partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol composition having a degree of hydrolysis of less than about 91%, that can increase the rate of formation of the green bond during corrugated board manufacture, wherein the concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol composition in the adhesive composition when diluted is about 0.25 to 1.25 parts of polyvinyl alcohol composition per each 100 parts of the adhesive composition.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
109 words
A dry blend composition, that can be diluted with water to form an adhesive, which comprises a major proportion of a starch composition useful in corrugating adhesives, and an effective amount of a cold water soluble polyvinyl alcohol composition having a degree of hydrolysis of less than 91% which when fully diluted in a basic boric acid compound containing aqueous adhesive is present at a concentration of about 0.01 to about 1.5 parts of polyvinyl alcohol per each 100 parts of the adhesive composition, sufficient to increase the rate of green bond formation at temperatures below the temperature required to solubilize fully hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol in a corrugating adhesive.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
109 words
A dry blend composition, that can be diluted with water to form an adhesive, which comprises a major proportion of a starch composition useful in corrugating adhesives, and an effective amount of a cold water soluble polyvinyl alcohol composition having a degree of hydrolysis of less than 91% which when fully diluted in a basic boric acid compound containing aqueous adhesive is present at a concentration of about 0.01 to about 1.5 parts of polyvinyl alcohol per each 100 parts of the adhesive composition, sufficient to increase the rate of green bond formation at temperatures below the temperature required to solubilize fully hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol in a corrugating adhesive.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 7 wherein the polyvinyl alcohol is a low molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 7 wherein the degree of hydrolysis of the polyvinyl alcohol is 87 to 89%.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 7 wherein the particle size of the polyvinyl alcohol is less than 80 mesh.
