Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
124 words
A liquid-crystal polyester composition which exhibits excellent high temperature stability as evidenced by the ability to form molded articles which when heated at 270° C. for one hour possess no visible surface blistering comprising a melt-processable thermoplastic polyester which forms an anisotropic molten phase and exhibits an intrinsic viscosity of approximately 2.0 to 10 dl./g. when dissolved in a concentration of 0.1 percent by weight in pentafluorophenol at 60° C., 1.0 to 70 percent by weight of an inorganic filler based upon the weight of the composition, and 1 to 5 percent by weight of a crosslinked silicone rubber formed through an addition reaction well dispersed therein having a mean particle diameter of 1 to 20 μm. based upon the weight of the composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
124 words
A liquid-crystal polyester composition which exhibits excellent high temperature stability as evidenced by the ability to form molded articles which when heated at 270° C. for one hour possess no visible surface blistering comprising a melt-processable thermoplastic polyester which forms an anisotropic molten phase and exhibits an intrinsic viscosity of approximately 2.0 to 10 dl./g. when dissolved in a concentration of 0.1 percent by weight in pentafluorophenol at 60° C., 1.0 to 70 percent by weight of an inorganic filler based upon the weight of the composition, and 1 to 5 percent by weight of a crosslinked silicone rubber formed through an addition reaction well dispersed therein having a mean particle diameter of 1 to 20 μm. based upon the weight of the composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
A liquid-crystal polyester composition according to claim 1 wherein said melt-processable polyester which forms an anisotropic melt phase comprises 70 mole percent of recurring 4-oxybenzoyl units and 30 mole percent of recurring 6-oxy-2-naphthoyl units.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
A liquid-crystal polyester composition according to claim 1 wherein said crosslinked silicone rubber formed through an addition reaction is provided in a concentration of 5 percent by weight based upon the weight of the composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
37 words
A liquid-crystal polyester composition according to claim 1 wherein said crosslinked silicone rubber was formed through an addition reaction, with hydrosilylation of a ##STR7## group to an unsaturated group in the presence of a palladium compound catalyst.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
46 words
A liquid-crystal polyester composition according to claim 1 wherein said crosslinked silicone rubber formed through an addition reaction was prepared by reacting a dimethylpolysiloxane having a vinyl group with a dimethylpolysiloxane having a ##STR8## group in the presence of a palladium compound catalyst with addition crosslinking.
