Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
120 words
The method of making a dental silicate cement comprising forming a paste by mixing an aluminum fluorosilicate glass powder with an aqueous solution of a solid polymeric material selected from the group consisting of a homopolymer of an ethylenically unsaturated alpha, beta-dicarboxylic acid of 4-5 carbon atoms, a copolymer of said acids with each other, and a copolymer of said acids with less than 10 mole percent of an ethylenically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, methacrylic ester wherein the ester moiety is alkyl of 1-4 carbon atoms or methacrylic amide, said aqueous solution containing 20-65 weight percent polymer and having a viscosity of 0.5 to 3000 poise at 25° C. and subsequently permitting said paste to harden into a dental silicate cement.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
120 words
The method of making a dental silicate cement comprising forming a paste by mixing an aluminum fluorosilicate glass powder with an aqueous solution of a solid polymeric material selected from the group consisting of a homopolymer of an ethylenically unsaturated alpha, beta-dicarboxylic acid of 4-5 carbon atoms, a copolymer of said acids with each other, and a copolymer of said acids with less than 10 mole percent of an ethylenically unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, methacrylic ester wherein the ester moiety is alkyl of 1-4 carbon atoms or methacrylic amide, said aqueous solution containing 20-65 weight percent polymer and having a viscosity of 0.5 to 3000 poise at 25° C. and subsequently permitting said paste to harden into a dental silicate cement.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
