Abstract

Abstract A bitumen composition modified with an organo silane in which a bitumen such as asphalt is reacted with an organo silane containing ethylenic unsaturation or an organo silane containing at least one hydrogen atom bonded to the silicon atoms whereby the organo silanes react with ethylenic unsaturation of the bitumen to chemically bond the organo silane to the bitumen. Also included are bitumens which have been chemically modified by reaction with steam, air, ammonia or aliphatic amines which have been reacted with a silane containing a functional group reactive with the bitumen. Bitumen compositions of the invention are preferably used in the treatment of glass fibers for use as reinforcement in asphalt systems.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 236 words
A silicon-modified bitumen composition prepared by reaction of (1) a bitumen chemically modified with a modifying agent selected from the group consisting of, ammonia and an amine, said amine having the formula R 3 --NH--R 4 or H 2 N--(CH 2 )y NH--(CH 2 ) z --NH] a H wherein R 3 is a C 1 -C 10 alkyl, R 4 is hydrogen or a C 1 -C 10 alkyl, y is an integer from 2 to 6, z is an integer from 2 to 6 and a is 0 or an integer from 1 to 6 and (2) an organo silicon compound selected from the group consisting of a compound having the formula: ##STR11## a compound having the formula: ##STR12## a compound having the formula: ##STR13## and a compound having the formula: ##STR14## wherein x is 0 or an integer from 1-3, Z is a readily hydrolyzable group; R 1 and R 2 are selected from the group consisting of Z and a non-hydrolyzable organic group; R 5 is hydrogen or methyl; P is 0 or --NH--; e is an integer from 2-6, X' is --NH-- or --NH--(CH 2 ) 3 --NH-- and f is an integer from 2 to 6 and the hydrolysis products of said organo silicon compound, in the presence of a catalyst to promote the reaction between the ethylenic unsaturation of said organo silicon compound with ethylenic unsaturation in the bitumen.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 236 words
A silicon-modified bitumen composition prepared by reaction of (1) a bitumen chemically modified with a modifying agent selected from the group consisting of, ammonia and an amine, said amine having the formula R 3 --NH--R 4 or H 2 N--(CH 2 )y NH--(CH 2 ) z --NH] a H wherein R 3 is a C 1 -C 10 alkyl, R 4 is hydrogen or a C 1 -C 10 alkyl, y is an integer from 2 to 6, z is an integer from 2 to 6 and a is 0 or an integer from 1 to 6 and (2) an organo silicon compound selected from the group consisting of a compound having the formula: ##STR11## a compound having the formula: ##STR12## a compound having the formula: ##STR13## and a compound having the formula: ##STR14## wherein x is 0 or an integer from 1-3, Z is a readily hydrolyzable group; R 1 and R 2 are selected from the group consisting of Z and a non-hydrolyzable organic group; R 5 is hydrogen or methyl; P is 0 or --NH--; e is an integer from 2-6, X' is --NH-- or --NH--(CH 2 ) 3 --NH-- and f is an integer from 2 to 6 and the hydrolysis products of said organo silicon compound, in the presence of a catalyst to promote the reaction between the ethylenic unsaturation of said organo silicon compound with ethylenic unsaturation in the bitumen.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 99 words
A silicon-modified bitumen composition prepared by reaction of (1) an asphalt selected from the group consisting of a bitumen and a bitumen chemically modified with a modifying agent selected from the group consisting of ammonia and aliphatic amines, and (2) an organo silicon compound selected from the group consisting of an organo silane containing at least one hydrogen atom bonded to the silicon atom which is capable of reaction with ethylenically unsaturated double bonds of the bitumen in the presence of a catalyst effective to promote the reaction of the silicon compound with the ethylenic unsaturation of the bitumen.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 99 words
A silicon-modified bitumen composition prepared by reaction of (1) an asphalt selected from the group consisting of a bitumen and a bitumen chemically modified with a modifying agent selected from the group consisting of ammonia and aliphatic amines, and (2) an organo silicon compound selected from the group consisting of an organo silane containing at least one hydrogen atom bonded to the silicon atom which is capable of reaction with ethylenically unsaturated double bonds of the bitumen in the presence of a catalyst effective to promote the reaction of the silicon compound with the ethylenic unsaturation of the bitumen.
