Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 64 words
An optical recording medium comprising at least one recording layer on a substrate, further comprising a protective layer comprising a UV cured resin of a composition containing a urethane acrylate, N-vinyl-pyrrolidone, a trifunctional or greater functional acrylate, and a photoinitiator, wherein the urethane acrylate has at least two acryloyl groups in the molecule and a molecular weight of 400 to 1,500 per acryloyl group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 64 words
An optical recording medium comprising at least one recording layer on a substrate, further comprising a protective layer comprising a UV cured resin of a composition containing a urethane acrylate, N-vinyl-pyrrolidone, a trifunctional or greater functional acrylate, and a photoinitiator, wherein the urethane acrylate has at least two acryloyl groups in the molecule and a molecular weight of 400 to 1,500 per acryloyl group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
An optical recording medium as claimed in claim 1, wherein the urethane acrylate content of said UV cured resin composition is from 35 to 70 wt %.
