Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 50 words
A composition comprising petroleum asphalt having dispersed therein and in direct contact therewith particles of oil furnace carbon black in an amount effective to substantially improve the resistance of said asphalt to thermal and actinic oxidation and below an amount at which substantial physical reinforcement of said petroleum asphalt occurs.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 50 words
A composition comprising petroleum asphalt having dispersed therein and in direct contact therewith particles of oil furnace carbon black in an amount effective to substantially improve the resistance of said asphalt to thermal and actinic oxidation and below an amount at which substantial physical reinforcement of said petroleum asphalt occurs.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said oil furnace carbon black has a BET-N 2 surface area of between 50 and 120 m 2 /g.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said oil furnace carbon black has a volatile content of at least 0.5% by weight.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said oil furnace carbon black is present in the amount of between about 2 and about 5 percent by weight of said petroleum asphalt.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 13 words
