Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to aqueous dispersions of positively charged polytetrafluoroethylene. This inventon also relates to a process for preparing aqueous dispersions of positively charged polytetrafluoroethylene which comprises adding an aqueous dispersion of negatively charged polytetrafluoroethylene containing an anionic emulsifier to an aqueous solution of a cationic emulsifier kept under light agitation while maintaining a ratio of the molar concentration of cationic emulsifier to that of the anionic emulsifier greater than 1:1.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 37 words
A composition consisting essentially of a positively charged aqueous dispersion of solid polytetrafluoroethylene, anionic emulsifier and cationic emulsifier; said cationic emulsifier being present in a molar ratio to the anionic emulsifier that is substantially greater than 1:1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 37 words
A composition consisting essentially of a positively charged aqueous dispersion of solid polytetrafluoroethylene, anionic emulsifier and cationic emulsifier; said cationic emulsifier being present in a molar ratio to the anionic emulsifier that is substantially greater than 1:1.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 46 words
A composition consisting essentially of an aqueous dispersion of solid polytetrafluoroethylene, anionic emulsifier and cationic emulsifier; said cationic emulsifier being present in a molar ratio to the anionic emulsifier that is substantially greater than 1:1 and characterized as non-coagulating upon the effective acidification of the dispersion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 46 words
A composition consisting essentially of an aqueous dispersion of solid polytetrafluoroethylene, anionic emulsifier and cationic emulsifier; said cationic emulsifier being present in a molar ratio to the anionic emulsifier that is substantially greater than 1:1 and characterized as non-coagulating upon the effective acidification of the dispersion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein the pH of the dispersion is approximately neutral.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 66 words
A method for preparing a composition consisting essentially of a positively charged aqueous dispersion of solid polytetrafluoroethylene which comprises adding an aqueous dispersion of negatively charged polytetrafluoroethylene containing an anionic emulsifier to an aqueous solution of a cationic emulsifier kept under light agitation while maintaining a ratio of the molar concentration of cationic emulsifier to that of the anionic emulsifier that is substantially greater than 1:1.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 66 words
A method for preparing a composition consisting essentially of a positively charged aqueous dispersion of solid polytetrafluoroethylene which comprises adding an aqueous dispersion of negatively charged polytetrafluoroethylene containing an anionic emulsifier to an aqueous solution of a cationic emulsifier kept under light agitation while maintaining a ratio of the molar concentration of cationic emulsifier to that of the anionic emulsifier that is substantially greater than 1:1.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method of claim 4 wherein the ratio of the molar concentration of cationic emulsifier to that of the anionic emulsifier is maintained at greater than 2:1.
