          Appeal No. 1997-0334                                                        
          Application 08/211,698                                                      

                                    THE INVENTION                                     
               The appealed invention is directed to a process for                    
          producing a urethane coating on a substrate.  The process                   


          comprises emulsifying the ingredients which make up the                     
          urethane in water, applying the emulsified ingredients to the               
          substrate and reacting (curing) the emulsified ingredients to               
          form the urethane coating.                                                  
               Claim 4 is believed to be adequately representative of                 
          the appealed subject matter and is reproduced below for a more              
          facile understanding of the appealed subject matter.                        
               Claim 4. A process for the production of a polyurethane                
               coating which comprises                                                
                                                                                     
               A) emulsifying a polyisocyanate component b) having                    
               a viscosity at 23EC of 50 to 10,000 mPa s and containing.                               
               at least one organic polyisocyanate in an aqueous organic              
               solution or dispersion of a relatively high molecular                  
               weight polyol component a) containing a mixture of                     
                                                                                     
               a1) a water-dilutable, hydroxyfunctional                               
               polycondensation resin free from urethane and sulfonate                
               groups and having a molecular weight Mn above 500 with                 
                                                                                     
               a2) a positive amount to 100%                                          
               by weight, based on the weight of component a1), of at                 
               least one water-dilutable, hydroxyfunctional                           
               polymerization resin having a molecular weight Mn above                
               500,
