Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
A composition comprising an admixture of (A) from 99.5 to 50 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a copoly(arylene sulfide) corresponding to the structure [(--A--S--).sub.1-x (--A--S--S--).sub.x ].sub.n wherein A is a divalent substituted or unsubstituted aromatic radical, x is in the range of 0.5 to 0.001 and n is at least 25, and (B) from 0.5 to 50 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR6## wherein a is an integer in the range of 4 to 12, R corresponds to the structure (--CH.sub.2 --).sub.b wherein b is an integer in the range of 4 to 13 or to the structure ##STR7## wherein c is 0, 1, 2 or 3, and n is at least 25, or a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR8## wherein d is an integer in the range of 5 to 11 and m is at least 50.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 155 words
A composition comprising an admixture of (A) from 99.5 to 50 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a copoly(arylene sulfide) corresponding to the structure [(--A--S--).sub.1-x (--A--S--S--).sub.x ].sub.n wherein A is a divalent substituted or unsubstituted aromatic radical, x is in the range of 0.5 to 0.001 and n is at least 25, and (B) from 0.5 to 50 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR6## wherein a is an integer in the range of 4 to 12, R corresponds to the structure (--CH.sub.2 --).sub.b wherein b is an integer in the range of 4 to 13 or to the structure ##STR7## wherein c is 0, 1, 2 or 3, and n is at least 25, or a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR8## wherein d is an integer in the range of 5 to 11 and m is at least 50.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the divalent aromatic radical is provided by diiodobenzene, diiodonaphthalene or diiodobiphenyl.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the divalent aromatic radical is selected from p-diiodobenzene, m-diiodobenzene, p,p'-diiodobiphenyl, p,p'-diiododiphenyl ether or 2,6-diiodonaphthalene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 55 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein a in an integer in the range of 4 to 8, b is an integer in the range of 4 to 8, c is 0 or 1 n is at least 25, d is an integer in the range of 5 to 11, and m is at least 50.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 109 words
A composition comprising an admixture of (A) from 98 to 75 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a copoly(phenylene sulfide) corresponding to the structure [(--A--S--).sub.1-x (--A--S--S--).sub.x ].sub.n wherein A is a divalent phenylene radical, x is in the range of 0.5 to 0.001 and n is at least 50, and (B) from 2 to 25 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR9## wherein R corresponds to the structure (--CH.sub.2 --).sub.6 or to the structure ##STR10## and n is at least 50, or a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR11## wherein m is at least 75.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 109 words
A composition comprising an admixture of (A) from 98 to 75 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a copoly(phenylene sulfide) corresponding to the structure [(--A--S--).sub.1-x (--A--S--S--).sub.x ].sub.n wherein A is a divalent phenylene radical, x is in the range of 0.5 to 0.001 and n is at least 50, and (B) from 2 to 25 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture, of a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR9## wherein R corresponds to the structure (--CH.sub.2 --).sub.6 or to the structure ##STR10## and n is at least 50, or a polyamide corresponding to the structure ##STR11## wherein m is at least 75.
