Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 26 words
A composition of matter comprising a vulcanizable polyacrylate elastomer containing from about 1 to 4 parts per hundred parts thereof of particulate polytetrafluoroethylene in fibrous form.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 26 words
A composition of matter comprising a vulcanizable polyacrylate elastomer containing from about 1 to 4 parts per hundred parts thereof of particulate polytetrafluoroethylene in fibrous form.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein said polyacrylate elastomer is a copolymer of a major proportion of one or more esters of acrylic acid and a minor proportion of an active halogen containing vinyl monomer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
A composition according to claim 2 wherein said active halogen containing vinyl monomer is vinyl chloroacetate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 57 words
A method for improving the abrasion resistance of vulcanizable elastomer as in claim 1, which comprises incorporating into said elastomer from about 1 to 5 parts, per hundred parts thereof, of particulate non-fibrous polytetrafluoroethylene and subjecting said elastomer and polytetrafluoroethylene to conditions of high shear, such that the resulting elastomer composition contains said polytetrafluoroethylene in fibrous form.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A method as in claim 4 wherein said non-fibrous polytetrafluoroethylene is in the form of an aqueous dispersion or dry powder.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 35 words
The method of claim 4 wherein said polyacrylate elastomer is a copolymer of a major proportion of one or more esters of acrylic acid and a minor proportion of an active halogen containing vinyl monomer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 15 words
The method of claim 6 wherein said active halogen containing vinyl monomer is vinyl chloroacetate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 14 words
An abrasion resistant elastomer composition resulting when the composition of claim 4 is vulcanized.
