Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
187 words
A curable composition suitable as a top coat which comprises: (A) a vinyl copolymer having a main chain consisting essentially of a vinyl copolymer and having in its molecule both at least one alcoholic hydroxyl group and at least one hydrolyzable silyl group, bonded to a carbon atom, of the formula (I): ##STR19## wherein R 1 is an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms or an aryl group, R 2 is hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an aryl group and an aralkyl group, and a is 0, 1 or 2, said copolymer having an alcoholic hydroxyl equivalent of 400 to 2,000 g where said alcoholic hydroxyl equivalent is the weight of said copolymer containing one gram equivalent of an alcoholic hydroxyl group, (B) 1 to 200 parts of a silanol group-containing organopolysiloxane having at least one silanol group, and (C) 0.001 to 10 parts of a curing catalyst, said parts of (B) and (C) being parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said vinyl copolymer (A).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
