Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
A method of preparing a composition which comprises: (A) mixing under high shear mixing conditions about 10 to about 40 parts by weight bentonite clay having a mesh size in the range of about 100 to about 500 U.S. Standard Sieve Size with about 500 to about 1500 parts by weight water at a temperature in the range of about 50°C to about 90°C until the mixture appears to be thickened; (B) mixing therewith while maintaining the mixture temperature in the range of about 20°C to about 95°C, about 15 to about 45 parts by weight polydimethylsiloxane characterized by having a viscosity in the range of about 40,000 to about 120,000 centistokes at 25°C, about 12 to about 36 parts by weight of at least one of polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol characterized by having a molecular weight in the range of about 1500 to about 2500, and surfactant for said polydimethylsiloxane and poly(alkylene glycol);
Claim 2
Independent Claim 155 words
A method of preparing a composition which comprises: (A) mixing under high shear mixing conditions about 10 to about 40 parts by weight bentonite clay having a mesh size in the range of about 100 to about 500 U.S. Standard Sieve Size with about 500 to about 1500 parts by weight water at a temperature in the range of about 50°C to about 90°C until the mixture appears to be thickened; (B) mixing therewith while maintaining the mixture temperature in the range of about 20°C to about 95°C, about 15 to about 45 parts by weight polydimethylsiloxane characterized by having a viscosity in the range of about 40,000 to about 120,000 centistokes at 25°C, about 12 to about 36 parts by weight of at least one of polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol characterized by having a molecular weight in the range of about 1500 to about 2500, and surfactant for said polydimethylsiloxane and poly(alkylene glycol);
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 58 words
A method of creating a cured rubber, expandable, toroidal shaped, pneumatic tire cure bladder for a pneumatic or semi-pneumatic tire which comprises coating the outer, exposed surface of the bladder in about 80 to about 150 percent of its tire curing expanded condition with a composition prepared according to the method of claim 1 and drying said composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 2 where the bladder is of the butyl-type rubber.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 3 where the said polydimethyl-siloxane is hydroxyl capped.
