Appeal 2007-2234 Application 09/950,477 [20] Example 1 of Miranda is said to compare the ability of three formulations to impart anti-skid or friction properties to paper (id., 17:4-7). [21] According to Example 1, the latex JONCRYL 74® was used as a 48.5% dispersion in water. The silica was used as a sol (41% by weight silica in water). The amount of silica used in the formulations is expressed as % by weight dry silica. Formulation (1) is composed of 38 % by weight silica, 14 % by weight glycerine, and 48 % by weight water. Formulation (2) is composed of 37.6% by weight silica, 8 % by weight diethylene glycol, 0.07 % by weight biocide, and 54.3 % by weight water. Formulation (3) is composed of 30.75 % by weight silica, 14.58 % by weight diethylene glycol, 10 % by weigh [sic] JONCRYL 74®, 0.07% by weight biocide, and 44.6 % by weight water. The formulations were diluted with water in order to facilitate the application of the formulations. . . . [Id., 17:7-18.] [22] The three formulations of Example 1 were said to show slide angle losses through the winder (i.e., "skidding") of 3.3, 1.4 and 0.4 degrees, respectively (id., 18:22-26; Table 1). [23] Example 2 is said to show the printability indices of the three formulations of Example 1 as averaging 35, 41 and 40, respectively, with formulation 2 showing the highest average printability index (id., Table 2). [24] Example 3 is said to compare the propensity of three formulations to form deposits on tips of spray bars used in mill applications after one hour of spraying (id., 19:26-30 and 20:4). 6Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Next
