Abstract

Abstract The treatment of pavement surfaces with a rapid setting high float asphalt emulsion which comprises 50 to 75 weight percent asphalt, about 0.01 to 1.0 weight percent anionic emulsifier, about 0.2 to 15 weight percent carboxylic acid esters, sufficient base to provide said emulsion with a pH greater than about 9, and water.

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 81 words
A high float and rapid setting bituminous emulsion comprising: (a) from about 50 to about 75 parts by weight of asphalt; (b) from about 0.01 to about 1.0 parts by weight of tall oil; (c) from about 0.4 to about 15 parts by weight of methyl oleate; (d) sufficient base to provide said emulsion with a pH greater than about 9; and (e) sufficient water to make a total of (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) equal 100 parts by weight.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 66 words
A chip seal surface treatment for pavement maintenance comprises distributing a substantially uniform layer of the high float and rapid setting emulsion of claim 1, 2 or 3 on said pavement, either before or after the application of an aggregate adapted for chip seal use onto said pavement; whereby said emulsion breaks and said aggregate is bonded to the asphalt of said emulsion and said surface.
