How Do You Draft a Strong Independent Claim in Catalysis?
To draft a strong independent claim:
1. Be Specific Yet Broad: Clearly define the catalyst's unique features while ensuring the claim is broad enough to cover variations. 2. Use Precise Language: Avoid ambiguity by using specific chemical names, compositions, and processes. 3. Include Essential Elements: Ensure all critical aspects of the invention are included without relying on dependent claims. 4. Consider Future Innovations: Draft claims that are flexible enough to encompass foreseeable improvements or variations.
