                Application 07/818,852                                                                                                   


                varying the thickness of the coating is a result determinative variable for optimizing the                               
                dispersability of magnetic powder.  See In re Antonie, 559 F.2d 618, 620, 195 USPQ 6, 8,                                 
                9 (CCPA 1977).                                                                                                           
                        For the foregoing reasons, we cannot sustain this rejection.  Accordingly, the                                   
                decision of the examiner is reversed.
