Abstract

Abstract Asphaltic compositions suitable for use in paving formulations and having desirable viscosity, temperature susceptibility and ductility properties can be made by combining propane precipitated asphalt, asphaltenes and a liquid petroleum derivative such as a heavy distillate or residual oil. These compositions allow maximum utilization of low cost asphaltenes and produce compositions having improved viscosity and temperature susceptibility properties.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
A composition according to claim 1 which is made by the process of: a. blending said propane precipitated asphalt with a petroleum distillate to form a first liquid blend; b. blending said asphaltenes with a petroleum distillate to form a second liquid blend; c. blending said first and second blends with a residual petroleum oil to form a mixture; and d. distilling said mixture so as to substantially recover said petroleum distillate and so as to leave said asphaltic composition as a residue.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said liquid petroleum fraction constitutes about 20 to 55 weight percent of said composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said asphaltenes of component (a) constitute about 10 to 25 percent of said composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said propane precipitated asphalt constitutes about 10 to 30 weight percent of said composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said asphaltenes have been obtained from a residuum by normal haptane precipitation.
