Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 24
Claim 1
Independent Claim 51 words
A process for coating a plastic substrate which comprises applying to a plastic substrate a polyurethane coating composition comprising (i) a polyurethane dissolved in an organic solvent and (ii) a polysiloxane containing amino groups in order to improve the levelling and wetting of said polyurethane coating composition on said plastic substrate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 51 words
A process for coating a plastic substrate which comprises applying to a plastic substrate a polyurethane coating composition comprising (i) a polyurethane dissolved in an organic solvent and (ii) a polysiloxane containing amino groups in order to improve the levelling and wetting of said polyurethane coating composition on said plastic substrate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 209 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said polysiloxane contains structural units corresponding to formula I to VI ##STR4## wherein R 1 independently of each other represent an alkyl group containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a vinyl group or a phenyl group, R 2 represents an amino group-containing alkyl or aryl radical containing primary, secondary or tertiary amino groups and a total of 2 to 20 carbon atoms, R 3 represents an alkyl group containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R 4 represents a C 1 -C 6 alkyl radical, a phenyl group, a C 2 -C 20 aminoalkyl group or mixtures there, m, q and x are the same or different and represent whole or (on a statistical average) a fractional number from 0 to 5, the sum of m+n+p being a whole or (on a statistical average) a fractional number of 1 to 20 and y is a whole or (on a statistical average) a fractional number from 10 to 1400, provided that the substituents and the values of the indices are selected to provide a molecular weight of the polysiloxane of about 400 to 110,000 and a nitrogen content in the form of primary, secondary or tertiary amino groups of about 0.01 to 6% by weight.
