          Appeal No. 96-2505                                                          
          Application No. 08/122,417                                                  

               This is a decision on an appeal from the final rejection of            
          claims 25 through 64 which are all of the claims remaining in the           
          application.                                                                
               The subject matter on appeal relates to an aqueous polymer             
          dispersion reactive resin component for a two-component reactive            
          laminating adhesive system comprising OH-functional polyurethane            
          prepolymers produced by a particular process.  The process                  
          comprises reacting a polyol component and compounds containing at           
          least two isocyanate-reactive groups with a stoichiometric excess           
          of an isocyanate component comprised of at least 20% by weight              
          tetramethyl xylylene diisocyanate to produce polyurethane                   
          prepolymers with remaining NCO groups followed by dispersing                
          these prepolymers in water and at least partially reacting the              
          remaining NCO groups of the prepolymers with aminoalcohols.  This           
          appealed subject matter is adequately illustrated by independent            
          claim 25, a copy of which taken from the appellants' brief is               
          appended to this decision.                                                  
               The references relied upon by the examiner in the rejections           
          before us are:
