Appeal No. 2006-2268
Application No. 10/468,448
claim 1. As such, the Examiner has not shown that the Bremser4
reference renders obvious the subject matter of the appealed
claims within the meaning of 35 U.S.C. § 103.
4Upon careful review of the cited Bremser reference, we note that
component (C) discussed on page 44 of the document may correspond to
the unsaturated monomer (a). The Examiner has not provided a
discussion of this component and in particular, when this component is
added to the Bremser composition. It is noted that the reference
discusses the addition of the component (C) as well as other
components on pages 56 and 57 of the document. The present record is
deficient in that the Examiner has not identified portions of the
prior art which establish that a component corresponding to (C) would
have been added to the reaction product (A/B) as required by the
claimed invention.
