Appeal No. 2006-2680
Application No. 10/710,187
3. OBVIOUSNESS
Claim 4 stands rejected as being obvious over either Liu ‘380 or Liu
‘765. (Answer 4.) Claim 4 depends from claim 1 and adds the limitation
that “the polyester comprises polyethylene terephthalate.”
We reverse this rejection as well. As discussed supra, neither Liu
‘380 nor Liu ‘765 discloses a composition comprising a “polyetherimide,” as
one of skill would interpret that term. The examiner has not pointed to any
teaching in the references that would suggest such a composition. We
therefore reverse the obviousness rejection of claim 4.
