          JOHN D. SMITH, Administrative Patent Judge.                                 



                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
                    This is an appeal pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 134 from                
          the final rejection of claims 21 through 33.  Claims 19 and 20              
          stand withdrawn from further consideration as directed to a                 
          non-elected invention.                                                      
                    Claim 21 is representative and is reproduced below:               
                    21.  A gasketing compound exhibiting low plasticizer              
          migration and low marring effect on painted surfaces compris-               
          ing:                                                                        
                    (a)  a first vinyl chloride resin having an                       
                         inherent viscosity greater than about 1.02,                  
                         a porosity greater than about .34 cc/gm and                  
                         having a high gel content;                                   
                    (b)  a second vinyl chloride resin having an                      
                         inherent viscosity of at least about 1.02,                   
                         a porosity of at least about .34 cc/gm and                   
                         having a low gel content, or no gel content,                 
                         the inherent viscosity differing from the                    
                         inherent viscosity of said first vinyl                       
                         chloride resin; and                                          
                    (c)       from an effective amount up to about 80                 
                         parts per 100 parts of resin of an external                  
                              plasticizer.                                            
                    The reference of record relied upon by the examiner               
          is:                                                                         
                                          2
