Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 46 words
A matting agent produced from fibers of a polymer containing acrylonitrile in a quantity more than 50 weight %, said fibers having a fiber diameter less than 100μ, a fiber length less than 0.3 mm, an aspect ratio less than 20, and a non-circular cross-sectional shape.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 46 words
A matting agent produced from fibers of a polymer containing acrylonitrile in a quantity more than 50 weight %, said fibers having a fiber diameter less than 100μ, a fiber length less than 0.3 mm, an aspect ratio less than 20, and a non-circular cross-sectional shape.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
The matting agent as claimed in claim 1 wherein the fibers contain a functional group having active hydrogen.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
The matting agent as claimed in claim 2 wherein the content of the functional group having active hydrogen is 0.2-10% based on the weight of the fibers.
