This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims 1-
12, all the claims remaining in the present application.
Claim 1 is illustrative:
1. An antistatic composition, comprising:
(a) 100 parts by weight of, ethylenically unsaturated,
nonfluorinated copolymerizable, radiation curable monomers;
(b) from 0.5 to 5.0 parts by weight of a nonionic
perfluoro surfactant; and
(c) from 0.5 to 5.0 parts by weight of an ionic perfluoro
surfactant.
The examiner relies upon the following references as
evidence of obviousness:
Keough 4,623,594 Nov. 18, 1986
Sato et al. (Sato) 57-42741 Mar. 10, 1982

Yamamoto et al. (Yamamoto) 64-46739 Feb. 21, 1989
(Japanese Kokai publication)
It is evident from illustrative claim 1 that appellant's
claimed invention is directed to an antistatic composition
comprising an ethylenically unsaturated, nonfluorinated,
copolymerizable, radiation curable monomer, a nonionic
perfluoro surfactant and an ionic perfluoro surfactant.
According to appellant, the claimed composition can be cured
