Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 68 words
A composition comprising a non-miscible blend of a linear alternating polymer of carbon monoxide and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon of from 2 to 20 carbon atoms inclusive and an ethylene-α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer, said α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid having up to 10 carbon atoms, wherein the amount of said ethylene-α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer is 0.01% to 35% by weight based on the total blend.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 68 words
A composition comprising a non-miscible blend of a linear alternating polymer of carbon monoxide and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon of from 2 to 20 carbon atoms inclusive and an ethylene-α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer, said α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid having up to 10 carbon atoms, wherein the amount of said ethylene-α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer is 0.01% to 35% by weight based on the total blend.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the linear alternating polymer is represented by the formula --CO--CH 2 -CH 2 )] x [CO--B)] y wherein B is the moiety of an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon of at least three carbon atoms and the ratio of y:x is no more than 0.5.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 37 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid has up to 4 carbon atoms and the copolymer is present in an amount from about 0.1% to about 35% by weight based on the total blend.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The composition of claim 3 wherein B is the moiety of propylene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 34 words
The composition of claim 4 wherein the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid is acrylic acid present in the copolymer in an amount from about 0.1% by weight to about 35% by weight based on total copolymer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 32 words
The composition of claim 4 wherein the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid is methacrylic acid present in the copolymer in an amount from about 0.1% to about 35% by weight based on total copolymer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 7 words
The composition of claim 3 wherein y=0.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 13 words

Claim 11
Dependent Claim 27 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said copolymer is present in an amount of from about 0.5 to about 10% by weight based on the total blend.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 26 words
The composition of claim 10 wherein said copolymer is present in an amount of from 1% to about 7% by weight based on the total blend.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 31 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid is present in said copolymer in an amount from about 0.1% to about 35% by weight based on the total copolymer.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 31 words
The composition of claim 12 wherein said α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid is present in said copolymer in an amount from about 1% to about 20% by weight based on the total copolymer.
