Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
37 words
A polymer composition comprising a major proportion of a poly(alkylene terephthalate) wherein the alkylene group contains 2-4 carbon atoms and a minor proportion sufficient to impart thermal stability to said poly(alkylene terephthalate) of a bis-(alkylphenyl)pentaerythritol diphosphite ester.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
37 words
A polymer composition comprising a major proportion of a poly(alkylene terephthalate) wherein the alkylene group contains 2-4 carbon atoms and a minor proportion sufficient to impart thermal stability to said poly(alkylene terephthalate) of a bis-(alkylphenyl)pentaerythritol diphosphite ester.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
14 words
The polymer composition of claim 1 wherein the pentaerythritol diphosphite is a bis-(dialkylphenyl)pentaerythritol diphosphite.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
The polymer composition of claim 1 wherein the pentaerythritol diphosphite is bis-(2,4-ditertiarybutylphenyl)pentaerythritol diphosphite.
