Appeal No. 96-2504 Application 08/318,328 for preparing a cured polyurea coating. The process comprises coating a water-resistant substrate with a composition containing water and a binder which consists essentially of a hydrophil-ically-modified polyisocyanate having the recited characteris-tics. Appellants separately argue claims 13-18, as a group, and claims 11, 12, 17, 18, 23 and 24, as a group. Accordingly, such two groups of claims stand or fall together, as do claims 7-10 and 19-22. Appealed claims 7-24 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102 as being anticipated by Hombach. In addition, claims 7-24 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Hombach in view of the CYANAMID BULLETIN. We have carefully reviewed the respective positions advanced by appellant and the examiner. In so doing, we will not sustain the examiner's section 102 rejection of claims 11, 12, 17, 18, 23 and 24. However, we will sustain the examiner's section 102 rejection of claims 7-10, 13-16 and 19- 3Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
