Abstract
Abstract Asphalt emulsions are rapidly hardened by incorporating therein an isocyanate-terminated urethane prepolymer formed by reacting one equivalent of the OH group of a polyalkylene glycol having the following formula HO-CH2CH2O-p-CH2CHO-q-CH2CH2O-r-H ¦ CH3 wherein p + r >/= q, q >/= O, p >/= 1, r >/= 1 and 20 </= p + q + r </= 100, with 1.1 to 2.0 equivalents of the NCO group of an organic diisocyanate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
128 words
A method for rapidly hardening an aqueous, oil-in-water type, cationic or anionic, road-surfacing asphalt emulsion containing from about 55 to 65 weight percent asphalt or mixture of asphalt and synthetic rubber, emulsifier and the balance is water, which comprises incorporating into said emulsion from 1 to 35 percent by weight, based on the weight of said emulsion, on an isocyanate-terminated, water-soluble, urethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an organic diisocyanate with polyalkylene glycol having the formula ##EQU3## wherein p + r ≧ q, q ≧ 0, p ≧ 1, r ≧ 1, and 20 < p + q + r < 100, at a ratio of 1.1 to 2.0 equivalents of the NCO groups of said organic diisocyanate, per one equivalent of the OH groups of said polyalkylene glycol.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
128 words
A method for rapidly hardening an aqueous, oil-in-water type, cationic or anionic, road-surfacing asphalt emulsion containing from about 55 to 65 weight percent asphalt or mixture of asphalt and synthetic rubber, emulsifier and the balance is water, which comprises incorporating into said emulsion from 1 to 35 percent by weight, based on the weight of said emulsion, on an isocyanate-terminated, water-soluble, urethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an organic diisocyanate with polyalkylene glycol having the formula ##EQU3## wherein p + r ≧ q, q ≧ 0, p ≧ 1, r ≧ 1, and 20 < p + q + r < 100, at a ratio of 1.1 to 2.0 equivalents of the NCO groups of said organic diisocyanate, per one equivalent of the OH groups of said polyalkylene glycol.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, in which the amount of said isocyanate-terminated, water-soluble, urethane prepolymer is from 5 to 20 percent by weight, based on the weight of said emulsion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
36 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, in which said ratio is from 1.1 to 1.5 equivalents of the NCO groups of said organic diisocyanate, per one equivalent of the OH groups of said polyalkylene glycol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
34 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, in which said isocyanate-terminated, water-soluble, urethane prepolymer is substantially uniformly mixed into said emulsion immediately before or during application of said emulsion to an existing asphalt paving.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
47 words
A method as claimed in claim 4, in which said emulsion and said prepolymer are separately sprayed onto asphalt paving with the spray patterns thereof intermingling so that a thin layer of a substantially uniform mixture of said emulsion and said prepolymer is formed on said paving.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
141 words
Asphalt paving having a surface coating layer thereon formed by applying to said asphalt paving a substantially uniform mixture of (A) an aqueous, oil-in-water type, cationic or anionic, roadsurfacing asphalt emulsion containing from about 55 to 65 weight percent of asphalt or a mixture of asphalt and synthetic rubber, emulsifier and the balance is water, (B) from 1 to 35 percent by weight, based on the weight of said emulsion of an isocyanate-terminated, water-soluble, urethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an organic diisocyanate with polyalkylene glycol having the formula ##EQU4## wherein p + r ≧ q, q ≧ 0, p ≧ 1, r ≧ 1, and 20 < p + q + r < 100, at a ratio of 1.1 to 2.0 equivalents of the NCO groups of said organic diisocyanate, per one equivalent of the OH groups of said poolyalkylene glycol.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
141 words
Asphalt paving having a surface coating layer thereon formed by applying to said asphalt paving a substantially uniform mixture of (A) an aqueous, oil-in-water type, cationic or anionic, roadsurfacing asphalt emulsion containing from about 55 to 65 weight percent of asphalt or a mixture of asphalt and synthetic rubber, emulsifier and the balance is water, (B) from 1 to 35 percent by weight, based on the weight of said emulsion of an isocyanate-terminated, water-soluble, urethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an organic diisocyanate with polyalkylene glycol having the formula ##EQU4## wherein p + r ≧ q, q ≧ 0, p ≧ 1, r ≧ 1, and 20 < p + q + r < 100, at a ratio of 1.1 to 2.0 equivalents of the NCO groups of said organic diisocyanate, per one equivalent of the OH groups of said poolyalkylene glycol.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
133 words
A rapidly hardenable road surfacing composition, consisting essentially of an aqueous, oil-in-water type, cationic or anionic, road-surfacing asphalt emulsion containing from about 55 to 65 weight percent of asphalt or mixture of asphalt and synthetic rubber, emulsifier and the balance is water, said emulsion having substantially uniformly mixed therein from 1 to 35 percent by weight, based on the weight of said emulsion, on an isocyanate-terminated, water-soluble, urethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an organic diisocyanate with polyalkylene glycol having the formula ##EQU5## wherein p + r ≧ q, q ≧ 0, p ≧ 1, r ≧ 1, and 20 <p + q + r < 100, at a ratio of 1.1 to 2.0 equivalents of the NCO groups of said organic diisocyanate, per one equivalent of the OH groups of said polyalkylene glycol.
