Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 53 words
A shaped heat-insulating board comprising a molded refractory material having substantially uniformly distributed therethrough flexible, thermoset polymer fibers resistant to decomposition at a temperature up to about 400° F. in an amount of from about 0.1 to 0.4 parts by weight for each 100 parts by weight of other solids in said board.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 53 words
A shaped heat-insulating board comprising a molded refractory material having substantially uniformly distributed therethrough flexible, thermoset polymer fibers resistant to decomposition at a temperature up to about 400° F. in an amount of from about 0.1 to 0.4 parts by weight for each 100 parts by weight of other solids in said board.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The board of claim 1, wherein said fibers are polyester fibers from about 1/4 to 1/2 inch in length.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
The board of claim 1 or 2, wherein the refractory material is magnesia.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 61 words
A composition for forming a shaped heat-insulating board for use in molten metal handling vessels comprising a refractory material, a binding resin, and flexible, thermoset polymer fibers resistant to decomposition at a temperature up to about 400° F. in an amount from about 0.1 to 0.4 parts by weight for each 100 parts by weight of other solids in said composition.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 61 words
A composition for forming a shaped heat-insulating board for use in molten metal handling vessels comprising a refractory material, a binding resin, and flexible, thermoset polymer fibers resistant to decomposition at a temperature up to about 400° F. in an amount from about 0.1 to 0.4 parts by weight for each 100 parts by weight of other solids in said composition.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
