Abstract
Abstract A method for preparing an asphalt emulsion having the smooth texture of whipped cream and which may be cold laid on wet wood and concrete surfaces to dry without blistering. Asphalt is heated to a temperature within the range from about 375° F. to about 400° F. and subsequently rapidly admixed with an aqueous slurry of hydrophilic clay in a manner and in proportions which achieve heat transfer from asphalt to clay slurry without excessive water evaporation to provide the desired emulsification.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
120 words
A method for preparing an asphaltic emulsion consisting of clay, asphalt and water which comprises: preparing a slurry, at ambient temperature, consisting of water of a hydrophilic clay having a particle size not exceeding about 0.002 inches and capable of absorbing from up to about ten times its weight of water to about its own weight of water; preheating an asphalt having a range of 40 to 300 penetration to a temperature within the range from about 375° F. to about 400° F.; and, admixing said slurry with said asphalt while agitating at a mixing speed of between 50 and 90 r.p.m. to emulsify the slurry and asphalt into a lather having an increase in volume of about 18 percent.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
120 words
A method for preparing an asphaltic emulsion consisting of clay, asphalt and water which comprises: preparing a slurry, at ambient temperature, consisting of water of a hydrophilic clay having a particle size not exceeding about 0.002 inches and capable of absorbing from up to about ten times its weight of water to about its own weight of water; preheating an asphalt having a range of 40 to 300 penetration to a temperature within the range from about 375° F. to about 400° F.; and, admixing said slurry with said asphalt while agitating at a mixing speed of between 50 and 90 r.p.m. to emulsify the slurry and asphalt into a lather having an increase in volume of about 18 percent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
A product produced by the method of claim 1 for coating a surface characterized by said product providing water runoff across the surface thereof subsequent to coating of the surface while permitting vapor passage from the surface through the coating.
