         Appeal No. 2003-1718                                                       
         Application No. 09/344,295                                                 

         But even if the references could be combined in the manner as              
         proposed by the examiner, the combination would not result in              
         the appellants’ claimed invention because neither Wynne nor                
         Paeglis provides any motivation, teaching, or suggestion to use            
         the recited propylene-ethylene copolymer sheets polymerized from           
         specific amounts of polypropylene and ethylene monomer.                    
              For these reasons, we reverse the examiner’s rejection                
         under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) of appealed claims 1, 3 through 8, and            
         10.
