Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
A process for preparing a polyurethane emulsion which comprises: reacting a semi-ester containing at least one OH group and at least one COOH group, which is produced by addition reaction of a poly-OH compound having two or more OH groups with a dicarboxylic acid anhydride, with a polyisocyanate compound having at least two NCO groups or an isocyanate prepolymer having at least two NCO groups produced by a reaction of said polyisocyanate compound with a polyoxy-alkylenepolyol or polyesterpolyol, wherein the ratio of the number of NCO groups in the polyisocyanate compound to the number of OH groups in the semi-ester compound is ≧2.0, whereby there is obtained an isocyanate compound containing a COOH group and at least two terminal NCO groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 121 words
A process for preparing a polyurethane emulsion which comprises: reacting a semi-ester containing at least one OH group and at least one COOH group, which is produced by addition reaction of a poly-OH compound having two or more OH groups with a dicarboxylic acid anhydride, with a polyisocyanate compound having at least two NCO groups or an isocyanate prepolymer having at least two NCO groups produced by a reaction of said polyisocyanate compound with a polyoxy-alkylenepolyol or polyesterpolyol, wherein the ratio of the number of NCO groups in the polyisocyanate compound to the number of OH groups in the semi-ester compound is ≧2.0, whereby there is obtained an isocyanate compound containing a COOH group and at least two terminal NCO groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
The process of claim 1, wherein a mixture of the semi-ester and the polyisocyanate compound is dispersed in an aqueous solution.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the semi-ester is dispersed or dissolved in an alkaline solution and then the polyisocyanate compound is dispersed in the solution.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 46 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the semi-ester is produced by reacting maleic, phthalic, glutaric or succinic anhydride with polypropylenepolyether glycol, glycerine, an adduct of glycerine and ethyleneoxide, an adduct of glycerine and propyleneoxide, an adduct of glycerine and ethylene and propylene oxide, or castor oil.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 39 words
The process for preparing a polyurethane emulsion of claim 1, wherein said semi-ester compound is produced by addition reaction of said polyhydroxyl compound with maleic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, glutaric anhydride or succinic anhydride by ring opening of said anhydride.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 50 words
The process for preparing a polyurethane emulsion of claim 1, wherein said semi-ester compound is produced by addition reaction of glycerine, polyoxyalkylenepolyol having an average molecular weight of less than 3000 or castor oil with maleic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, glutaric anhydride or succinic anhydride by ring opening of said anhydride.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 81 words
The process for preparing a polyurethane emulsion of claim 1, wherein said isocyanate compound containing a COOH group is produced by reacting said semi-ester with a polyisocyanate compound having at least two NCO groups selected from the group consisting of aromatic or aliphatic diisocyanate compounds and polymethylene polyphenylisocyanates, or an isocyanate prepolymer having at least two NCO groups which is produced by reacting said polyisocyanate compound with trimethylolpropane, polyoxyalkylenepolyol having an average molecular weight of less than 3000 or castor oil.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 27 words
The process for preparing a polyurethane emulsion of claim 1, wherein the COOH group-content of the COOH-containing isocyanate compound is in the range of 0.1 - 3.0%.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 16 words
A polyurethane emulsion, which comprises an alkaline aqueous dispersion of the reaction product of claim 1.
