Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
73 words
A polymeric composition in the form of paste, liquid, or preformed film, comprising a polymeric binder and silver particles evenly distributed in said binder, said binder being prepared from a processable liquid polymer, said silver particles comprising at least 95% pure silver and having a volume electrical resistivity in the compressed free flow state of not more than 0.0002 ohm-cm, said composition having a stable volume electrical resistivity of 0.0001 ohm-cm or less.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
73 words
A polymeric composition in the form of paste, liquid, or preformed film, comprising a polymeric binder and silver particles evenly distributed in said binder, said binder being prepared from a processable liquid polymer, said silver particles comprising at least 95% pure silver and having a volume electrical resistivity in the compressed free flow state of not more than 0.0002 ohm-cm, said composition having a stable volume electrical resistivity of 0.0001 ohm-cm or less.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
48 words
A composition of claim 1 wherein said polymeric binder comprises an epoxide resin cured with suitable curing agents and silver flakes at weight fraction loading of from about 70 to 90% by weight, which for this particular flake structure is at least 5% beyond its electrical percolation threshold.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words

Claim 5
Dependent Claim
13 words
The composition of claim 1 which is an adhesive, sealant, coating, or gasket.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said composition comprises part of a B-stage preform, cured structure, or circuit board.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
72 words
An electrically conductive polymeric composition having a stable volume electrical resistivity in the cured state of not more than 0.0001 ohm-cm, said composition comprising a polymeric binder filled with a conductively effective amount of fine silver particles, said silver particles in a compressed free-flow state having a volume electrical resistivity of not more than 0.0002 ohm-cm, and being evenly distributed in said binder, said binder being formed of a processable liquid polymer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
72 words
An electrically conductive polymeric composition having a stable volume electrical resistivity in the cured state of not more than 0.0001 ohm-cm, said composition comprising a polymeric binder filled with a conductively effective amount of fine silver particles, said silver particles in a compressed free-flow state having a volume electrical resistivity of not more than 0.0002 ohm-cm, and being evenly distributed in said binder, said binder being formed of a processable liquid polymer.
