Appeal 2007-0885
Application 10/053,497
Appellants’ traversal of all five grounds of rejection is based on their
contention that the teaching of Yang, alone or in combination with the
secondary references is limited to reactive hot melt polyurethane adhesives,
which are not encompassed by the present claims. Having determined that
Appellants’ position is not supported by the evidence of record, we affirm as
to all five grounds of rejection.
