Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 106 words
A surface-treated pigment having excellent spreadability and feeling, said pigment consisting essentially of pigment particles, wherein the surfaces of the pigment particles are coated with a coating consisting essentially of a polyolefin which contains --COOR groups, wherein R is a metal atom selected from the group consisting of Al, Mg, Ca, Zn, Zr and Ti, said polyolefin containing --COOR groups having a molecular weight in the range from 500 to 20,000, and an acid value in the range from 5 to 100, the amount of said polyolefin containing --COOR groups being in the range from 0.5 to 10% by weight based on the weight of pigment.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 106 words
A surface-treated pigment having excellent spreadability and feeling, said pigment consisting essentially of pigment particles, wherein the surfaces of the pigment particles are coated with a coating consisting essentially of a polyolefin which contains --COOR groups, wherein R is a metal atom selected from the group consisting of Al, Mg, Ca, Zn, Zr and Ti, said polyolefin containing --COOR groups having a molecular weight in the range from 500 to 20,000, and an acid value in the range from 5 to 100, the amount of said polyolefin containing --COOR groups being in the range from 0.5 to 10% by weight based on the weight of pigment.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 43 words
A pigment according to claim 1, wherein said polyolefin is adsorbed on the pigment surfaces in an oriented manner so that the metal atom R in said polyolefin is more closely adsorbed to the pigment surface than the remaining portion of said polyolefin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
A pigment according to claim 1, wherein said metal atom is selected from the group consisting of Al, Zr and Ti.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
A pigment according to claim 1, wherein said polyolefin is a member selected from the group consisting of polyethylenes, polypropylenes and polybutenes.
